Onye & The Messengers at Redwood Cafe.

Fri, August 10, 2018, 8:30 pm - 11:00 pm

Onye and The Messengers, an Afro World Beat Band, based in Sonoma County, inspired by renowned Nigerian master percussionist and performer Onye Onyemaechi.

The band is a primal Afro Beat Band that finds its roots in the spirit of ancient Africa, re-creating the tribal world village celebration of body and soul. The band music is a combination of electrifying influences of African rhythms, funky blues and jazz, reggae, rock and world music. The rhythm of the music is heavenly polyrhythmic, and the vocals can range from traditional call-and-response, chanting styles and wailing melody lines associated with funk and soul music.

Resident DJ Loisaida plays special World Beat selections for the occasion.
