LIONEL LOUEKE TRIO

Karibu 

Thursday, 9/25/08, 8 pm
Reynolds Industries Theater

$28 • $20 • $5*

Herbie Hancock’s guitarist for the past five years, this Benin-born “gentle virtuoso” (NY Times), now with his own trio, unfurls percussive, shimmering rhythms that are rooted in Africa but reach past national boundaries. “Smartly formed and deftly executed” (JazzTimes), these syncopated compositions bear a title that in Swahili means “welcome.”
