Join us in welcoming this powerhouse ensemble of artists and global collaborators to Kings Oaks.

Aba Diop & the Yermande Family bring rhythm as medicine. Led by master griot percussionist, Aba Diop, their concerts center sabar—drums traditionally used for healing, celebration, and spiritual connection. Rooted in Senegalese rhythm and call-and-response tradition, the music blends polyrhythmic percussion, improvisational guitar, microtonal melodies, and soaring voice. The overall effect is deeply mystical, uplifting, and undeniably dance worthy.

The concert starts at 6:00pm on Sunday, September 28, followed by a reception with the artists. All ages welcome. In addition to general admission seating there will be room for those inspired to move or dance to the music. Learn more and reserve tickets.
