The J4JA Brass Band will be back out on the streets, bringing their message to NYC jazz clubs and their patrons: that jazz musicians deserve pension, fair pay, and recording protections!
Here is what is coming up that might be of interest to my New York readers.
– West African blues (Noura) at Joe’s Pub next week!
– French and indie with a little comedy, (Erin and her cello) at Joe’s Pub July 31st
– Ethiopian reggae show (Zvuloon) at Meridian 23 Aug 1st
– Remix EP from Brooklyn based Afrobeat group Underground System (with a concert at Meridian 23 on Aug 15th)
Noura Mint Seymali – Mauritanian Blues; Noura Mint Seymali at Joe’s Pub 7/29 – 07/29/2014 – New York, NY
Noura Mint Seymali, from Mauritania, comes from an ancient family of griots, and she has a commanding, wide-open voice…the pentatonic melodies of her songs had something in common with the blues. But her fusion was particular and selective…She only meets American music on her own terms. +++New York Times, January 13th, 2014
