Join Senegalese musician and composer Alune Wade for a night celebrating the connections between jazz and afrobeat in West Africa and New Orleans. The evening will begin with a screening of Tukki: From the Roots to the Bayou, a documentary film that follows his journey through Senegal and Lagos to New Orleans to share the vibrant cultural ties across the Atlantic followed by a concert by Alune’s band. Based in Paris, the bass virtuoso’s band members are from Benin, Reunion Island, French Guiana, Nigeria, and the United States, and will undoubtedly have you up dancing.
This event is co-sponsored by the Griot Museum of Black History, Alliance Française de St. Louis, and the Neighborhood Story Project of New Orleans.
