Kafari: An Evening of Healing Sounds

'Kafari’ is the alias of Cincinnati, OH-born, Portland, ME-based pianist, rhythm bones player, beatmaker, and teaching artist Ahmad Muhammad. Kafari’s music synthesizes his love of ambient piano music, spiritual jazz, and experimental hip-hop, inspired by the musical legacies of Dorothy Ashby, J Dilla, Chopin, and the Carolina Chocolate Drops, who in a 2014 performance sparked his interest in the rhythm bones - an Irish percussion instrument popularized in America through blackface minstrelsy which Kafari often distributes and teaches to his audiences.
All Ages
Don't miss a free Rhythm Bones Workshop with Kafari for teens & adults on Saturday, November 23 at 2:00 PM!
