Get ready for a lively night of world rhythm and sounds inspired by the Caribbean, as colorful percussion and catchy melodies set up the atmosphere. This concert offers a dynamic blend of tropical beats and stories combined with energetic grooves to take the audience away to far-off lands. Expect an irresistible fusion of calypso, Afro-Latin, and roots influences that will keep everyone on the dance floor. It is as jubilant as it is rich musically, with a complete celebration of dance! Kobo Town
Kobo Town returns to stages across North America and Europe to tour their new album Carnival of the Ghosts, where the wit and wordplay that defined the group's previous releases are on full display, accompanied by an everything-soup of infectious Caribbean sounds - where calypso melodies and ska-driven horn hooks collide over heavy reggae and soca bass grooves, all amid an interplay of dirty electric guitars with hints of zouk and son montuno.
Robin Layne & The Rhythm Makers
Over the past decade and a half, Juno nominated percussionist Robin Layne has steeped himself in rhythmic traditions around the world. His search for rhythm and folkloric traditions has led him to Cuba, Guinea, Mali, Mexico, and beyond. He brings these influences to bear in his compositions that are inspired by his travels. Robin believes music has the power to connect and bring people together and has devoted his life to that, both through his performing work and also his educational work with young people. He is the senior percussion instructor at the Sarah McLachlan School of Music and the Artistic Director of the World Rhythms for Youth Society.
