About the Musician:
Percussionist, composer, and collaborator Curtis Andrews is a Canadian musician with global persuasions who creates music that is informed by his many years of experience with West African, South Indian and jazz traditions yet manages to transcend easy categorization. His personal musical journeys over the years have extended to villages and metropolises of Ghana, India, South Africa and Zimbabwe, and he has developed a deep knowledge of the history and performance of music from these areas. His personal mentors have included (the late) Don Wherry, Trichy Sankaran and Humegbeda Kwasi Dunyo. He continues to study and perform with these masters whenever possible.
 

Presented in partnership with The Rooms and the Tuckamore Music Festival.
