Orchestra Baobab has been replaced with The Garifuna Collective. Please contact the box office at 416.408.0208 for more information.
The Garifuna Collective has been a driving force in bringing the rich cultural heritage and music of the Garifuna people to a global audience for the last 20 years. Hailing from Belize in Central America, The Garifuna Collective has had a lasting impact in the Garifuna community and on the world music stage.

Their work has been critical in preserving and evolving the Garifuna musical traditions, while also highlighting the ongoing struggles and triumphs of the Garifuna people. This exceptional group of musicians has played to audiences in over 30 countries, making them one of the most important cultural ambassadors in the region. The band’s energetic and evocative live shows draw from their extensive repertoire, mixing traditional Garifuna rhythms with contemporary world music grooves.

Singer/songwriter and percussionist Blandine Kaniki, winner of an African Entertainment Award 2015 as Best Female Voice, blends the soul of rhumba with urban music. The Congolese Canadian singer’s 2019 album L’Antidote featured a powerful collaboration with the legend of Congolese music Nyboma and lead guitarist Lokassa Ya M’Bongo.

Presented in association with Batuki Music Society
