African Music Concerts Week of Oct 1 - Oct 2

AfroBeat is their specialty. The latest CD "Who is this America?" has become their cry. Embarked on a national tour, Antibalas is out to spread their political message of hope. Fiercely independent, come listen to what they have to say. The deep sound of their saxophones drives the message home. Tonight they will be joined by the soul of Connie Price and the Keystones.

Local salsa dancers have been revelling at this relatively new Latin Music hangout, but Ricardo drops in occasionally to update their sound with his mix of Congolese Rumba and Cuban Son. Come early and try some of their cuban specialties.

Nigerian Highlife is the dance music when you want to think about nothing else all night long. Eugene is the practitioner that can play it longer than your legs are able to dance it. This evening is a celebration of Nigerian Independence Weekend.
