KeruBo's Afro Jazz Group to Perform at York Street Meeting House April 23

At 7:00 pm on Saturday, April 23, KeruBo, accompanied by piano and acoustic guitar, will appear at the York Street Meeting House, 153 York Street, Lyndon.

Born in Kenya, now living in Winooski, KeruBo has been performing at festivals around the world, blending African traditional music with influences including Brazilian samba/bossanova, jazz, and blues. Her music is about healing, preserving African culture and heritage, and highlighting social issues affecting vulnerable minorities such as women and children. Her influences come from generations of music artists and songwriters but more particularly – Achien'g Abura, Miriam Makeba, Dorothy Masuka, and Nina Simone. She feels that these notable, strong-minded, female singers effectively used their music as a powerful medium for bringing awareness and rebuking social injustices.

Admission: $15 adults; under 13 free.

Supported in part by a grant from the Vermont Arts Council & the National Endowment for the Arts. Vaccinated only; also please wear masks. The Meeting House is handicap accessible. 153 York Street, Lyndon
