Remain In Light
Thu, May 12 | Bass Concert Hall
“On her 2021 album Mother Nature, the 61-year-old Beninese Afropop artist delivers sharp observations about the climate crisis and global injustice with her forceful voice and wraps her sweeping calls for pan-African unity in jubilant rhythm and harmony. Her fifth Grammy win this month makes her the most awarded African musician of all time, and the cast of up-and-coming Afrobeat stars who contributed to Mother Nature cement her status as a living legend who’s helping to shape the next generation. For this show, Kidjo will be revisiting her 2018 project Remain
in Light, a recreation of the 1980 Talking Heads album.”
