Voice of America, Concert Mention >>
The world touring season of African artists seems to be picking up again now that we’ve entered the month of March. This Friday, March 1st Ballake Sissoko
and Vincent Segal perform in D.C. to promote their new album At Peace. Habib Koite and Eric Bibb roll through next Friday, March 8th to promote
their new album Brothers in Bamako, and South African group Freshly Ground perform in Vienna, Virginia to promote their new album Take Me to The Dance on March 21st. Rest assured I’ll be at all of these events front and center with cameraman Jackson beside me to bring you the
latest in African music news in my next blog posts. Despite all the excitement, though, I am glad for the lull we’ve had these past few months. Diaspora
musicians make Washington D.C. an interesting place to be even when there are no tours and I have just begun to scratch the surface. In fact tomorrow night
I have a rehearsal of my own with a new band that includes a Nigerian drummer and Ivorian bassist, among others. Stay blessed and stay tuned to my next
post featuring Ballake Sissoko and Vincent Segal.
