It's not easy to go out on a snowy night in Cleveland, but if you make the effort there is magic to be had:
Senegalese master musician Abdou Mboup at AJ Rocco's Saturday, Jan 14, 2012.
Backed by a Cleveland Allstar cast, featuring: Guitarist Jacob Fader (Mifune,Kokolo), Keyboardist Ras T. Dubflex ( Dubflex International, The Meditations, The Asante Groove Project, etc), Bassist Rodney Reynolds ( Dubflex International) and master drummer Neil Chastain (Kokolo).

Abdou Mboup - Master Griot at Nighttown and CCPL
Senegalese Griot Abdou Mboup is in town and you can catch him tomorrow night at Nighttown
and at these Cuyahoga County Public Library locations. This is a rare opportunity to see a master musician.
I learned many cool things about percussion instruments and the tradition of story telling with drums.
Many thanks to Cuyahoga County Public Library for supporting this important cultural literacy.
This is a great show for kids, which is why the library is a great venue, but also don't miss out on his show at Nighttown!
