Whitefish Theatre Company presents Okaidja Afroso

Back by popular demand, Okaidja Afroso is an Afro-pop singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Ghana, West Africa. Born into a family of musicians and storytellers, his unique artistic vision has led him to combine the spicy, native rhythms of Ghana with diverse, unexpected cross-cultural flavors of folk, blues, and pop. This fresh sound preserves the authenticity of the traditional while embracing the rich complexity of the integrated world we inhabit today. Although Okaidja sings most of his hypnotic arrangements in his native language, the meanings of the songs shine through as he tells stories of his people, their journeys, and the African Diaspora.  Okaidja’s smooth compositions, soulful vocals, and spirited dancing promise an unforgettable and joyful evening of music!
