After a nice winter hibernation, Movement of the People: The Fela Kuti Project is gearing up for the spring and summer concert season.
We’ll be launching the season with a show at Positive Pie in Montpelier on Saturday May 5. Coincidentally that is also Cinco de Mayo.
We’re also excited to return to Burlington to do a Club Metronome hit during Jazz Fest week on Thursday June 7.
