Jadele McPherson a/k/a Lukumi Arts performing at Zinc Bar!!!!

Representing para mi hermana Jadele McPherson, a/k/a Lukumi Arts

Press Release, 1/22/2015:
New Dimensions in Latin Jazz & Zinc Bar present the newest wave of innovative Cuban music with a residency for the young AfroCuban vocalist/songwriter Jadele and her all-star band, Afrocubanismo on Fridays in February.

Gifted with the most powerful voice in Latin music since Celia Cruz, Jadele, a seasoned performer of AfroCuban ritual and sacred music, creates a gorgeous, sui generis musical landscape that incorporates the chants and rhythms of Cuba's Yoruba heritage with her original compositions. Her band - jazz sophisticates who are steeped in all the traditions of Cuban music - are up to the task.

Our set invokes an Afro-Cuban ritual cycle, beginning with Palo Monte Mayombe to honor ancestral routes of the African Diaspora to New York. We'll explore this legacy through Afro-Cuban folklore, jazz, hip-hop, blues, son & bolero. Join us in call & response to traditional and original music dedicated to the orishas, composed & arranged by Dayramir Gonzalez/DG Vicet (Havana, Cuba) & Jadele McPherson (New York, NY).
