Ade Egun Crispin Robinson, known as Spry, is a musician and a babalawo from London. Of mixed Jamaican and English heritage, he has a lifetime’s immersion in the music, culture and history of the Black Atlantic. His musical journey has moved through Jah Shaka sound system, the UK acid-jazz scene, contemporary London jazz, West African Mande music and the Afro-Cuban Orisha tradition.
He was an original member of the band Galliano in the 1990s, and currently plays with the Mande jazz collective Balimaya Project. His first professional recordings were with Soul II Soul in the late 80s and over the years he has played and recorded with Roni Size, Omar, Brian Eno, Mulatu Astatke, Slum Village, Dwele, Roy Ayers, Jerry Dammers Spatial AKA Sun Ra Orchestra, Steam Down, Dave Okumu, Shabaka, Anthony Joseph, Moses Boyd, Nao and many others.
A major part of Spry’s life has been his relationship with Orisha and Ifa. He is an omo Aña, omo Obatala, and babalawo, with initiations in Cuba in 2004, 2010, and 2012, and has spent many years playing sacred batá in ceremonies across the Orisha Atlantic, from Havana and New York to Lagos, Paris and London.
