If you have been following the exploits of our Threadhead African music specialist and Jazz Fest veteran (papafrog!!) , his group Kora Konnection has two announcments for this weekend.
First, most incredibly, the number of Griot Masters of African instrumentation in this group has now doubled to two with the addition of Thierno Dioubate on balafon and Djembe.
Second, also important, this weekend's (October 17th) performance has had to move indoors because of weather both because of cool temps and r**N.
More information can be found at the site I just helped developed: http://korakonnection.com/ where you can get a preview on my next NOLA flavored poster...ok here it is, but it WILL be updated with two more performers within the week...
