Thanks to all who came to last Saturday’s event and made it so much fun! If you want to repeat the experience, then come to a free concert this Friday at Mayne Stage. Some of Chicago’s cultural music instigators and I are getting together to give thanks for a wonderful year in world music by hosting this free party with some of our city’s emerging talent. Please join us as we give thanks and look forward to another great year in music to come!
We will have my band Nu Bambu performing along with Jugo de Mango and DJs Mwelwa and Perla. It will be a night of pure awesomeness!
