We’re taking a closer look at Colour Years, an exhibition bringing Sanlé Sory’s rarely seen colour photographs to the UK for the first time.

One of West Africa’s most prolific photographers, Sory has spent over six decades documenting the everyday, capturing youth culture, fashion, nightlife and the profound social changes unfolding in Burkina Faso. With an estimated million portraits made throughout his career, his archive offers an intimate record of a country and generation finding its own rhythm in the years following independence.

Colour Years opens up a lesser-seen chapter of Sory’s practice, bringing meticulously restored colour prints from his archive together with original Volta Jazz record covers, featuring portraits of the influential bands that shaped Burkina Faso’s post-independence cultural landscape.

“When you are in a place where everybody dances, you have to try to dance like everyone else!”

— Sanlé Sory

Ahead of the exhibition opening, we’re joined by Youssra Manlaykhaf, Digital Manager at The Photographers’ Gallery, for a first insight into the show, exploring Sory’s archive, the cultural world captured within these images, and the stories behind bringing Colour Years to life.

Colour Years: Sanlé Sory comes to @thephotographersgallery from 14 October 2026 until late February 2027.

Lagnajita is back for October with another edition of On The Road, this time soundtracking the change of season with a shift towards the more indie and alternative corners of the dial 🍂

Guitars take centre stage, weaving through indie, jazz and hazy soundscapes for a set that feels made for cooler days and slower listening, a little more introspective, a little more textured, On The Road takes us somewhere new this month

Ziggy Zeitgeist was back in the studio with another edition of Energy Exchange, a percussive journey built around the pull, pulse and movement of drums.

Opening with a heavy jazz workout before travelling through broken beats, African rhythms and Angolan sounds, the session moves across continents while keeping rhythm firmly at the centre.

A deep dive into percussion, polyrhythm and space.

Charlie Dark on the dials this morning, easing us from grey skies into warmer vibrations this Tuesday.

A mix of new finds and epic sounds pulled from deep within the collection, moving fluidly through jazz, soul, reggae and world music.

A show builds intensity as it unfolds, each record bringing its own texture, rhythm and sense of place, with Charlie letting the music do the travelling.

Noir Horizon introduces international audiences to Turkey’s independent music scene, highlighting emerging artists across indie, post-punk, synth-pop, dark wave and psychedelic rock. The programme connects listeners to a vibrant scene that is rarely represented on international radio.
