NEW EP OUT NOW: Fair Play Live @ 9:30!

Fair Play Live @ 9:30 celebrates global music connections, social justice and fighting corruption – all in one epic live EP

Back in December 2022, the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC became the epicenter of the anti-corruption music revolution as Fair Play ambassadors from four different countries came together for the performance of a lifetime. Over the past two years, these Fair Playas have worked to recapture the energy and passion from that unforgettable night, rerecording the compositions and arrangements born from their time in DC. The result is Fair Play Live @ 9:30–four unique tracks that showcase the talents of Faith Mussa (Malawi), Shanti Powa (Italy), Alesh (DR Congo), and Rain in Sahara (India).

“Being around such talented artists also using art for change, meeting hugely passionate people in the anti-corruption sector, and the overall experience has completely rekindled my passion and fire to tackle the challenges we collectively face.”

– Lain Heringman, Rain in Sahara

Fair Play Live @ 9:30 is more than just a musical album, it’s a bold statement of unity in diversity. Featuring a dynamic mix of Afro-soul, reggae, hip-hop, and classical influences, the album is a tribute to the Fair Play ambassadors’ commitment to advocating for justice, equality, and human rights. Each artist brings their own style, shaped by their cultural experiences, to inspire positive change through the power of music.

Meet the Fair Playas

The album is a result of the collaboration between four renowned artists/bands:

• Faith Mussa – Malawi’s first “electronic one–man band”, blending traditional African rhythms with modern sounds and heartfelt lyrics.
• Shanti Powa – A 10-peace powerhouse known for its high-energy fusion of reggae, hip-hop, and ska, delivering socially conscious messages.
• Alesh – A rapper and producer whose hard-hitting lyrics tackle issues of justice, corruption, and resilience in the face of oppression.
• Rain in Sahara – A genre-defying group merging hip-hop, electronica, Latin and classical influences, using music as a platform for human rights.

Beyond the music: A Movement for Justice

As the world continues to battle inequality, corruption, and human rights violations, Fair Play Live @ 9:30 serves as both a reminder and a call to action–a testament to the power of music to unite, heal and ignite change.

Now available on all major streaming platforms, the album invites listeners to join the Fair Play movement and be part of a global fight for justice.
