Check out this event by our friends at Koerner Hall:<\/p>

Africa’s first female griot kora player makes her Koerner Hall debut with one of her mentors, blues legend Taj Mahal. With her shimmering 21-string kora melodies and distinctive voice, Sona Jobarteh is “a griot for a new generation of West Africans,” (BBC) who “blends traditional music, blues, and Afropop to impressive effect” (The Guardian). Grammy Award-winning multi-instrumentalist Taj Mahal is a legendary figure in the blues and roots music and a hero to rock-and-roll icons such as Eric Clapton and the Rolling Stones.<\/p>
