Auditorium

Join us for a free performance by the Buffalo Afrobeat Orchestra, a diverse 16-piece ensemble composed of members from many other area bands, including One World Tribe, Outer Circle Orchestra, The Rockaz, 12/8 Path Band, Folkfaces, and many more. BAO is revitalizing Afrobeat music in Western New York and beyond. Afrobeat, with its heavy rhythm, trance-like groove, powerful melodies, and cutting lyrics is so moving that even a statue should be dancing by the end of the concert!
