Baba Ken Okulolo & The Nigerian Brothers

An Evening of African Music & Dance

Baba Ken Okulolo & The Nigerian Brothers

Thurs 3/15 @ 7:30

Includes pre-event African dance lesson

Nigerian bandleader Babá Ken Okulolo is one of the few popular African artists of today whose roots extend deep into traditional village life and folk music. BABÁ KEN OKULOLO & THE NIGERIAN BROTHERS recreate the sweet
sounds of their earliest village memories, bringing traditional folk melodies, 'palmwine' tunes, and highlife songs to life with harmonious voices, acoustic
guitars, and hand percussion instruments.

This is the music they grew up with, music that was played under the moonlight, gentle but joyously rhythmic, ranging from lilting lullabies to dance-inspiring tunes and energetic anthems. It is a special treat for those who enjoy an authentic sound, offering to all the universal healing magic of African music.
