The group Soulful Dynamics was founded in the mid-1960s under the name Dynamic Club and came from Liberia .

history

In 1969 they came to Hamburg and had their biggest hit with the title “Mademoiselle Ninette”, which appeared in early 1970. The single titles "Saah-Saah-Kumba-Kumba" and "Coconuts from Congoville", which landed at the top of the charts of many radio hit parades, should be mentioned. With the concept of "funny pop songs from the black continent" they brought even more success into the German hit parade . The band is still touring today under the direction of Andy Anderson with a different line-up at various oldie events through Germany.

Andy Anderson has been leading the Pahlen gospel choir in the Schleswig-Holstein community of Pahlen since 1994 .
