Sierra Leone Refugee All Stars

Sierra Leone Refugee All Stars

We sometimes forgot what its like to listen to live music or at least music recorded live, without the slick mixing machines. I remember when Barry White had his first concert in New York and I asked someone who attended, how was the concert? “He sounded like the record” was his reply. Not the answer I wanted to hear. I enjoy musicians looking to go beyond what they have in the studio.

So I’ve been listening to Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars and I wish I could play an instrument and join in. They are energizing and I feel like dancing.

The group is on tour and will be in Phoenix May 8th and 9th at the brand new The Musical Instrument Museum. Look to be there.
