SUMMARY:Okaidja Afroso
DESCRIPTION:Gesa Power House Theatre presents Okaidja Afroso in concert on Friday\, May 4 at 7:00 p.m. \n \nOkaidja is an Afropop singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. His unique artistic vision has led him to combine his native rhythms with unforeseen pairings of musical flavors. His sound is a spicy fusion of Ghanaian music with diverse cross-cultural influences. Although most of Okaidja’s hypnotic arrangements are sung in his native language\, the meaning shines through. His calling and life purpose is to bring us all together so that we can laugh and grieve and dance and forge forward together\, in community. \nOkaidja tells the stories of his people and follows their journey throughout the disparate lands where they were scattered. Okaidja brings together the deep understanding of his own musical transitions and the inspiration of Africa throughout Latin America. The music Okaidja creates is the music of the human experience. It is joyous\, tragic\, and uplifting. It embodies the vast perfect/imperfect human story. His soulful vocals and exultant dance movements connect with the audience in the most profound way. \nOkaidja was born into a family of musicians and storytellers in the village of Kokrobite on the west coast of Ghana. He began his career as a dancer with the celebrated Ghana Dance Ensemble. As he toured internationally\, Okaidja expanded his artistic reach\, becoming a master multi-instrumentalist\, singer-songwriter\, and arranger. \n \nReserved seating tickets ($30-$25 Adults; $20 Students) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500.
