Opening: The Well Main Act: SAMBA LOLO & Boubacar Diabate

SAMBA LOLO: Griot singer, guitarist, songwriter and storyteller Boubacar Diabate from Bamako, Mali comes from the Mandinka lineage and has combined traditional rhythms with modern influences to create his own style of contemporary Malian Griot music presenting his own compositions and arrangements, singing and playing guitar with his group, Samba Lolo. Singing in Bambara, Boubacar and Samba Lolo create a performance that spans the full spectrum of Traditional to Contemporary Malian music from West Africa. Instrumentation: Vocals/Guitar/Bass/Sax/Drums/African Percussion

THE WELL: Reggae-inspired hard hitting dance music. Since 2000, they have been part of Bostons rapidly growing music scene. The Wells debut album, O.N.V. (2003), features members of John Browns Body and State Radio. Vocalist Jimmy Trapella captivates audiences with his charismatic presence and his lyrics enlighten people with positivity. The musics driving force is the drum and bass. This, combined with melodies on keys and guitar, knits the whole band together. They were winners of Emersons 2004 Live Music Week competition.
