DONKILO! JAMS AT MEAD BASE ON JUNE 29
World-renowned Afro-jazz orchestra Donkilo! opens the 2018 Music at Mead series on June 29, 7 pm, in Center Sandwich. This distinctly new fusion of jazz, funk and Afrobeat gets folks out of their seat and dancing in the aisles.
Donkilo! blends traditional African instruments like the Fula flute, 10-string kamalen’goni and djembe, with guitar, bass, sax, drums and keyboards — creating a sound that is fresh and daring. Dave Kobrenski engages the audience with stories of his travels in Africa working with native musicians and how he blends that musical heritage with American Jazz. This concert is very family friendly, so bring the kids and grandkids along!
Donkilo! features the region’s top musicians including: Randy Roos on guitar, Jared Steer on drums, Mike Rossi on bass, Jon Lorentz on saxophone, Tom Robinson on keyboards, and Dave Kobrenski on Fula flute, Kamalen’goni, and djembe.
This concert, coordinated by Sandwich’s NH Independent School of Music, helps fund ongoing programs at Mead Base. Tickets cost $15 and may be purchased online at www.nhisom.org. $5 outdoor tickets available at the door. Kids outdoor tickets are $2 and $10 for seats inside. Space is limited. BYOB.
