Join us on the dance floor celebrating 10 years of bringing afrobeat and world music to Durango and the surrounding region

The Afrobeatniks draw their inspiration from the source: the popular, folkloric and spiritual music of Africa. The ancient rhythms that have traveled through time and space have now morphed into the grooves and melodies the Afrobeatniks provide, through their mutual passion for the complex and dance inducing West African, Brazilian, Afro-Cuban, Latin Jazz music

Afrobeatniks are: Danny Quinlan, Guitar - Alexii Carey, Bass - Bradley Hoessle, Drumset and Percussion - Dean Mullen, Congas and Percussion - Easton Stuard, Keys and Flute - Ian Boletchek, Tenor Sax - Michelle Neslon, Alto Sax - Damian Hagge, Bari Sax - Jared Wright, Trumpet

Special Guests include West African Master Drummer Etienne Tolno plus percussionist Baba Fred Simpson
