Monday 9/22
Afrissippi and Eric Deaton Trio
"Merging the music of West Africa with Mississippi roots music,
Afrissippi creates songs that feel perfect in their execution and temperament..."
~ Jonathan Curiel, San Francisco Chronicle (June 1, 2008)
"Sometimes an artistic project comes along that seems at once utterly unlikely,
yet at the same time completely logical. Unlikely because of the strange sequence of events that it took for it to occur; logical because the connections it explores are ones that were present, if submerged, all along, just waiting to be brought back to life..." ~ Siddhartha MItter, Boston Globe (May 9, 2008)

Aunt Kizzy'z Boyz (Blues)
I had the pleasure of seeing these guys in Memphis and thought they were great so I am bringing them to KC for you to see also. These guys are not only great blues musicians and singers, but the leader, “Sugaray” (all 6’9”, 300lbs. of him), is a show in itself!
