RIP legend. The legendary OSIBISA group lead, Teddy Osei has passed on.
Teddy Osei was a musician and saxophone player from Ghana. He was best known as the leader of the Afro-pop band Osibisa, founded in 1969.
In 1969, Osei, Amarfio, and Mac Tontoh came together with other musicians that they had been previously acquainted with to form Osibisa. The band derived its name from osibisaaba, the name given to the style of music that was a fusion of "palm-wine" music and traditional Fante fisherman's traditional music.
