Senegalese bass guitarist and composer Alune Wade traces the deep connection between West African rhythms and the bold brass traditions of New Orleans in his latest project New African Orleans. Backed by a blazing band that blends Afrobeat and juju grooves from Lagos with New Orleans jazz, Wade creates a vibrant transatlantic dialogue—merging history, rhythm, and groove into an unforgettable experience.
“I explore a world from my Senegalese roots to the lost branches across the Atlantic... I wanted to head west and start a musical conversation with the finest artists in Nigeria and the U.S.” —Alune Wade
