African Music Concerts Week of Nov 7 - Nov 13

Rocky recently completed a new CD called "Book of Changes" that melds Ghanaian roots with modern sounds. The CD will explore the sounds that are forming from the influences brought to Ghana by citizens of neighboring countries displaced by wars within their own borders. He is revealing some of the new songs for the first time in this celebration in honor of this new body of work. Come out to the coolest African scene in Santa Monica.

The Nigerian reggae star Majek Fashek will debut material from his new CD "Little Patience". The show is at an interesting little club that has changed hands a few times starting as an excellent restaurant and now some sort of rockin' sushi knockoff. The place is small enough to get a good view of the performer and still has room to dance.
