Jazz Winnipeg presents Bokante with Casimiro Nhussi & NAfro Band
UMFM Presents
Named for the Creole word for “exchange,” Bokante takes its inspiration from the childhood language of vocalist Malika Tirolien but draws on the talents of multiple percussionists, lap steel virtuoso Roosevelt Collier and a trio of guitarists including Snarky Puppy’s Bob Lanzetti to create a heady stew of groove, melody and soul.
