Heemoon Lee

Heemoon Lee, the visionary vocalist of SsingSsing, takes us on a transcendental musical journey with his band OBANGSINGWA and their new album, SPANGLE.

A powerhouse of Korean music, Lee injects fresh energy and new life into time-honoured Korean folk songs (minyo). Seamlessly blending minyo with a kaleidoscope of genres – including jitterbug, pop, dance, rock and blues – Lee captivates audiences with his talent and spirit.

Featuring SPANGLE, a psychedelic neo-minyo masterpiece, their ridiculously funny show featuring distinguished costumes and theatrical twists brings pure joy and transforms the Southbank Centre into a vibrant dance club.

Presented in partnership with the EFG London Jazz Festival
