Sona Jobarteh + Vila Verde + DJ Speedy

An evening of vivid African/Brazilian tinged sounds topped here by emerging female kora (the 21-string West African harp) star Jobarteh who performs her bewitching polyrythmic melodically charged originals. Vial Verde ('Green Village') are led by seven-string guitarist Emily O'Hara and draw on chorinho, an early form of Brazilian folk music, given a modern twist here.
