The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) presents a concert by Baba Ken Okulolo and the Nigerian Brothers in celebration of the exhibition Tradition as Innovation in African Art.
Info forwarded from Ryan Zwahlen, Coordinator, LACMA Music Programs - rzwahlen@lacma.org
Nigerian master musician Baba Ken Okulolo and the Nigerian Brothers are among the few top contemporary Nigerian musicians whose roots extend deep into traditional African folk and highlife music. Okulolo, best known for his long association with King Sunny Ade and other leading African musicians, brings the group’s tight vocal harmonies, intertwining acoustic guitars, and indigenous hand percussion to LACMA for a special concert celebrating West African sounds.
