About this event
Think LTD funk meeting Miles, add in Soukous, a monster genre bending Chinese zheng virtuoso, star powered vocals, and a world of surprises, this band will raise your eyebrows, drop your jaw, and have you feet moving. After their tour to the Rainforest World Music Festival in Borneo this year, they are adding new repertoire, getting funkier, and unapologetically creating magic onstage.
Mei Han, Chinese zheng innovator goes far beyond the comfort zone of her instrument, whether playing bluegrass, electronic music, free improv of groove. Touring major theatres and festivals in Asia with her Afro Asian Funkestra RC World, mixing cultures, beats and soul, she is giving her Vancouver home a peek at what she takes to the world. This is a rare chance to hear this internationally touring band live, and it is limited seating, so get your tickets soon. With the soul R&B vocals of D’arcy Han, the funk reggae fusion of Matt Reid on bass, Richard Brown on drums, and Cuyler Biller on guitar, West African guitar and percussion of Yoro Noukoussi, the magical keys of Mary Ancheta, and a world of rare sounds from Randy Raine-Reusch, this band defies expectations in its intercontinental vision. There is nothing else like them out there!
