Ibeyi debut brand new song "Exhibit Diaz" | Extend worldwide tour

IBEYI
ANNOUNCE BRAND NEW SONG ‘EXHIBIT DIAZ
EXTEND WORLDWIDE TOUR

Recently named by NPR as one of their ’25 Favorite Albums of 2015 + NPR named Ibeyi one of their ‘Favorite Artists of 2015.’'

Since releasing their debut album in February of this year, it has been well documented that the Ibeyitwin-sisters Naomi and Lisa-Kainde Diaz are dedicated fans of hip-hop. Today they release their unique interpretation of the cult Jay Electronica track "Better In Tune With The Infinite (Bibo No Aozora)" which they have named "Exhibit Diaz".

Since hearing the original version of Jay Electronica’s never released track (that draws upon a haunting piano sample by composer Ryuichi Sakamoto) the sisters immediately went away and learnt every lyric, turned Jay’s rapping into a sung vocal line and worked it into their very next live show – where it has remained ever since and subsequently became a fan favourite.

"Exhibit Diaz" was produced by Richard Russell at his Residence La Revolution studio, London, in July 2015.

Meanwhile, Ibeyi continue to take their critically acclaimed live shows to every corner of the globe, from The Park Stage at Glastonbury to the Summerstage in Central Park New York and everywhere in between. Today they announce an extension to the world tour. See full details below:
