Amaarae

Amaarae is a multi-talented musician and English Lit major hailing from Accra, Ghana. Experimenting with music from an early age, the singer-songwriter, producer and sound engineer travelled a lot as a child. Now a growing force within the Ghanaian music scene and starting to make waves across the seas, Amaarae’s unique sound, which combines an experimental mix of neo-soul and African drums, is getting her the attention from the likes of Gilles Peterson. 

Clued in to the scene in her hometown, scroll down for her favourite spots across the city.

Go on a Friday or Saturday if you like to be in the hustle and bustle and like crowds, but if you're chill and want a great night with a great atmosphere go after work. Maybe Tuesday or Wednesday, at about 6 – 9 pm and just have a drink and chill out.

A little hole in the wall spot with a rooftop, they do sick Thai food. If you go there ask for everything extra spicy, it's sick.

It’s a stretch of tiny alcohol kiosks, there’s one dude who has a kiosk and he had a couch outside and people just post up on the couch. Order a bunch of local shots.

Go drink at the republic bar, tell them Amaarae sent you.

Darkovibes

Twist night club is my go to location when it’s comes to night life in Accra. Growing up, I heard so many stories about the club which intrigued me to visit the club some day. It has an indoor studio where I record sometimes as well.

A beach house with a serene environment suitable for any kind of mood.


Go there order the ginger shot and Kokroko, your night will be made. They have some of the nicest calamari too.


I love Epos just because it runs 24 hours a day & any time of the day I can get food from them.

A beautiful rooftop view with live band performances.


Anytime I can’t go to Belleza Beach club due to the distance you’ll find me at Labadi beach riding a horse.


This club runs till morning. It’s definitely a vibe anytime me and my friends go there.

Club twist is popping! It took me 4 years to get into the Club Twist, if you get in you're made! If you haven't met the bouncer FM you haven't been to Twist.

After the party it's the after party! It's for the after partiers, when you leave Twist you go to Ace Tantra. Look out for my guys Yeho and Pablo Ghost they'll look after you.

Drinks to order - Ginger Shots, Kokokro & taste their Calamari - it makes sense!

All types of vibes from food/drinks to live music and horse riding.
