\"Toubab<\/p>\n

Some music cannot be found on a map or within iTunes categories. Some music is so original it seems snatched from the great, invisible substrata that runs below all human activity, a sound aching to be born without a flag or fixed allegiance \u2013 free, questing, overflowing with immediate, tangible life. This is the music of\u00a0Toubab Krewe<\/strong>, the vibrant Asheville, NC-based instrumental powerhouse that creates a sonic Pangaea that lustily swirls together rock, African traditions, jam sensibilities, international folk strains and more. While nearly impossible to put into any box, it takes only a few moments to realize in a very palpable way that one is face-to-face with a true original who recognizes no borders in a march towards a muscular, original, globally switched-on sound.<\/p>\n

Formed in 2005, Toubab Krewe has tenaciously honed their craft through relentless touring and a fierce dedication to carving out something they can truly call their own. The fruits of this hard work can be heard on their latest release,\u00a0STYLO<\/em>, (March 2nd, 2018). What Justin Perkins (kora, kamelngoni, guitar, percussion), Terrence Houston (drumset), Drew Heller (guitar, organ), Justin Kimmel (bass, keys), and Luke Quaranta (djembe, dunun, sangban, kenkeni, kryn, karenye) have wrought on STYLO reflects the many miles and musical journeys that have transpired since their last studio album, TK2.<\/p>\n

This is a band that actively draws inspiration from whatever source floats into their purview, something they\u2019ve exhibited in their decade and a half of heavy gigging, including regular appearances at major U.S. festivals like\u00a0Bonnaroo, High Sierra, Electric Forest, Wakarusa, Hulaween<\/em>, and abroad at such legendary gatherings as the\u00a0Festival In The Desert<\/em>\u00a0in Essakane, Mali,\u00a0Shanghai World Music Festival<\/em>, and\u00a0Jam Cruise<\/em>. Whether on their own or collaborating with luminaries like the Last Poets\u2019 Umar Bin Hassan, Uncle Earl\u2019s Rayna Gellert, or Weedie Braimah, Toubab Krewe has already earned the attention and respect of a broad musical community.<\/p>\n

Toubab carries echoes of African greats like Ali Farka Toure, Orchestra Baobab and Salif Keita, no doubt picked up during the group\u2019s travels to study and live in Guinea, Ivory Coast and Mali. \u00a0But what truly differentiates Toubab Krewe from other Statesiders inspired by African music is how they innovate on what they\u2019ve learned instead of simply recreating tradition. Toubab Krewe carves out a new trail honoring the African originators they admire by making something alive and contemporary.<\/p>","excerpt":"
