Afropop Spectacular, Mahmoud Ahmed & Trio da Kali

For the latest Afropop Spectacular, Mali's Trio Da Kali, an all-star meeting of griots with regal musical bloodlines, shares a bill with Mahmoud Ahmed, "the Red Sea's most seductive soul singer" (BBC). Trio da Kali made its Cal Performances debut as part of Kronos Quartet's 40th birthday celebration two seasons ago; Ahmed rarely tours in the United States but has been a star in his native Ethiopia (and its diaspora) for more than 50 years. #BerkeleyRADICAL #Immersion
