Orchestra Baobab

More details

A multi-generation Afro-Cuban band endlessly reinvigorating its sound. Hailing from Senegal, Orchestra Baobab got its start as the house band of the Baobab Club in Dakar. That was 55 years ago, and the band’s Afro-Cuban sound is as fresh and captivating as ever. For one night only, Club Hancher becomes the Baobab Club, and the house band takes its rightful place on the stage. Don’t worry—we’ll leave plenty of space for dancing!
