Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars perform at the Osher Marin JCC 7/9/16

San Rafael, CA (PRWEB) June 01, 2016 -- The Kanbar Center for the Performing Arts is thrilled to present an night of African music from Africa’s most inspirational band, Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars. The concert opens the Osher Marin JCC’s 24th Annual Summer Nights Festival.

Founded in a refugee camp near war torn Sierra Leone, the band was introduced to the world through the success of the documentary film following the sage of the band through three years of heartfelt performances as they moved from camp to camp, not to mention their instantly appealing music.

"…a world-music stew of traditional West African melody, reggae and rhythmic folk — first raises their own spirits, then those of their neighbors…" – New York Times

Post this

From squalor of refugee camps to the world’s biggest stages, Africa’s most inspirational band has evolved to become one of Africa’s most recognized bands with fans across the globe.

Their music embodies and radiates the joy, passion and love for their fellow man. The band is a living testament to the resilience of the human spirit and an inspiration to hundreds of thousands of people across the globe.

Uplifting and inspirational, this will be the perfect opening concert to kick off the 2016 Summer Nights Series.
