Featuring Kane Mathis on kora.
Show Details
The Andrew Oliver Kora Band combines elements of jazz and traditional West African music to create a unique soul-stirring sound. In the wake of his 2007 tour of West Africa with the U.S. State Department’s Rhythm Road: American Music Abroad, pianist and composer Andrew Oliver was inspired to start the group which features Kane Mathis on the 21-string kora, a traditional harp from West Africa, Chad McCullough on trumpet, Brady Millard-Kish on bass, and Mark DiFlorio on drums. http://aokora.wordpress.com/

These guys put on a great show, as always. They introduced several new songs, including one they just call “Kora No. 6″ for now. If you were at the show and have an idea for a title for the song, please post it here so Andrew, Kane, et al. can see it.
