Attica Blues are a British trip hop band,[1] who made their debut releases on the Mo' Wax label.
Taking their name from an Archie Shepp album, the band have also provided remixes for Ultra Naté, Sneaker Pimps, Silent Poets and DJ Krush.
D'Afro had previously founded London's Urban Poets Society collective but the duo later became Attica Blues.
[3] The duo began recording their first single alone but when a local student, the Egyptian-born Roba El-Essawy, visited the studio during the recording for their debut single, D'Afro and Nwachukwu decided to ask her to join them.
The album, titled Golden Seams, was written and produced by MidnightRoba and self-released to her Bandcamp page.
