Nu Afrika Sound w/ Spicy Khasso

Join us for the show Nu Afrika Sound with Spicy Khasso!

Spicy Khasso (Mahiri Fainké) is a vibrant Malian, Senegalese, and Jamaican-American artist. As a keeper of tradition, a modern young Djeli (Griot) if you will, Khasso reimagines ancestral art through a psychedelic lens-merging heritage with futurism. Their sound, led by Kora (23-string harp) and Djembe, fuses traditional Mandingue music with jazz, Afro-Cuban rhythms, diasporic folklore, rock, Afrobeat, and more. In October 2024, Khasso founded the FoReign DestinEton Arkestra—a 15+ member international collective using music and culture to connect and inspire.

Join us for Nu Afrika Sound—a performance and community bantamba (gathering place) for creatives, artists, and kindred spirits. This all-ages event, led by a multi-instrumentalist trio featuring Daniel Persaud and Julian Pujols Quall, explores African-rooted music across genres.
