VPR and the Flynn Center’s New Voices Project come together to present Sabouyouma at the next Live From The Fort on Thursday, May 2.
Join us in VPR’s Stetson Studio One to hear how Sabouyouma uses the balafon and polyrhythmic grooves to bring us on a cultural journey to West Africa, uncovering the roots of jazz, funk and blues.

This is an all-ages show and tickets are required. Free snacks and a cash bar will be available. Live From The Fort is made possible with support from the Skinny Pancake.
