What happens when a blue grass and jazz banjo player from Toronto sets out to explore the African roots of his instrument? The answer is Africa to Appalachia, recorded with the African kora (12 string harp) player Mansa Sissko that won the 2009 Juno award winner for World Music album of the year in Canada and Songlines Magazine top 10 world albums in March 2009. Do not miss this unique performance of blue grass meets Africa. Join Jayme Stone and his group blending jazz, bluegrass, African rhythms and anything else that strikes their fancy, with "music that's difficult to describe, but easy to love."
