Sound House: African Vibes—SOLD OUT
Thursday October 3, 2019 | 7 pm
MOA’s popular Sound House series returns for its second season. For the October edition, Ezra Kwizera and his band offer a zesty yet soulful mix of reggae, soca, East African bongo, and pop.
With linguistic agility, Ezra fluidly sings and raps in English, Kinyarwanda, Luganda, Zulu and Swahili. Growing up as a refugee in Uganda before moving back to his home country Rwanda after the 1994 genocide, Ezra is driven to support Rwandans through his music to rebuild their country. Ezra is joined by Knowledge Majon (Zimbabwe) on drums, Ettienne Mangala (Kenya) on bass, Josh (Nigeria) on piano and Brian Thiessen (Canada) on guitar.
Sound House is MOA’s new music series, now in its second season, featuring a fantastic and eclectic lineup of Vancouver bands and musicians—from folk to funk, hip hop to jazz. Sound House is a celebration of culture and music, set in MOA’s Haida House, against a stunning backdrop of Northwest Coast art and architecture. Gather around the toasty bonfire outside with friends and drinks, and let the picturesque views and scent of cedar inhabit your senses. Sound House delivers surprises and delights on the first Thursday of each month.
