Event Description:
Led by Okaidja, Shókoto takes you on a musical journey from Africa through the Americas. With exultant compositions, soulful vocals, and energetic dancing, the group's family-friendly mixture of traditional and contemporary African and world music is sure to make your heart sing. Their music draws on West African roots and the diverse music of the African Diaspora to create a dynamic fusion of rhythms from Ghana, Brazil, Cuba, Peru, and the Deep South. This project received support from ArtsWA; WESTAF, the Western States Arts Federation; and the National Endowment for the Arts. The concert is presented by WSU Performing Arts in conjunction with the first annual Humanitas Festival celebrating world arts (http://performingarts.wsu.edu/humanitas).
