ANTIBALAS AND ZAP MAMA US TOUR

JAN 24 2015

South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center presents Zap Mama and Antibalas on Saturday, January 24 at 8 p.m.

America’s premier afrobeat band, Antibalas, is excited to announce a collaborative tour with Zap Mama, Marie Daulne’s international polyphonic vocal group, that will travel across North America in January and February 2015.

Antibalas, founded in 1998, evolved out of the same Brooklyn-based musical nucleus as Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, and emerged onto the world music scene around 2000. After years of heavy international touring the band rose to greater prominence in 2007 for its role in the musical direction of the Broadway musical “Fela!.”
