Summer is winding down but we keep things hot with The Debo Band, Ebo Taylor, Don Cherry, etc...
| We begin with the upbeat sounds of Ethiopian groove from Boston-are Debo Band. They've been playing this music since 2006 and have actually toured Ethiopia, where they recorded their first EP. We are looking forward to the full-length release. |
