Tonight afrobeat Jesus, Femi Kuti, comes to the House of Blues. Kuti grew up playing in the band of his father, international superstar Fela Kuti. He carried on his father’s style of playing, even remaining in Lagos, Nigeria and continuing to play at his father’s club, The Shrine. In this video, recorded at the Shrine, Femi plays a tribute to his father. He is currently touring in support of his brand-new album, Africa for Africa, released in April. Gypsyphonic Disko will open the show. Starts at 9 p.m., tickets are $30.
