KG Omulo releases 'Moving Train'
One of Orlando's most credible world-music ambassadors, East African singer-songwriter and bandleader KG Omulo, celebrates the release of his debut album, "Ayah Ye! Moving Train," on Jan. 14 at the Social (thesocial.org).
Although this is the formal release, the album already has found its way onto several 2011 "best of" lists and it deserves the recognition. Powered by energetic splashes of horns and percussion that form the foundation for spiritually uplifting lyrics, this "Train" is bound for glory.
Making the music? An A-list of Orlando stars, including Anthony Cole on drums and keyboards, trombonist Clay Watson and sax man Brian Mackie.
Showtime: 9 p.m. Cost: $10
