Join us for a live music performance with special guest QWANQWA, a supergroup of musicians from the baddest ensembles of Addis Ababa.
QWANQWA is a supergroup of musicians from the baddest ensembles of Addis Ababa. Brought together by a shared passion for the power of Ethiopian music, this group shines in experimentalism based on the virtuosity of rooted traditions. With swirling mesenko (one-stringed fiddle), wah-wah-violin, bass krar boom, and the unstoppable rhythm of heavy kebero (goat-skin drum) beats, powerful traditional lead African diva vocals, QWANQWA keeps the audience wrapped in celebratory attention.
Part of the Spring Tour USA 2024.
