FELA.....what more can we say. It was definitely a "FELEBRATION" last week when AFRO FUNKE' got together with GIANT STEP and KF RECORDS to celebrate Fela's birthday and the re-release of his music. There were so many amazing people from all over the world who came together to celebrate the incredible musical legacy of the original "Black President" and one of the main inspirations for what we do at AFRO FUNKE' each and every week. For anyone who was blessed to have seen Fela live or visited his original Shrine in Lagos , the spirits were definitely in the house.
Big thanks to DJ NU-MARK for an absolutely smokin set for his first time out @ AFRO FUNKE'. Thanks as well to AMON who flew out from NYC to throw DOWN on percussion.
This week get ready to get down with an exciting new artist with the
world on his strings....

AFRO FUNKE’ LIVE PRESENTS
QUETZEL GUERRERO & the WARRIORS
Arizona Native, Quetzal Guerrero, whose name means "precious feather" in the ancient Aztec-Nahuatl language, began his musical explorations at the age of four. As a child, he studied classical violin at the famous Suzuki International Institute in Matsumoto , Japan as well as at the Conservatorio Pernambucuano de Musica in Recife , Brazil . Through the years he has become an outstanding multi-instrumentalist and performer, fluid with his voice, violin, guitar, and percussion.
Quetzal's art, much like his Native American, Mexican and Brazilian heritage, bridges many cultures and styles. The result is both familiar and fresh to the listener, offering an unassuming yet explorative convergence of styles and influences spanning, but not limited to Soul, Jazz, Brazilian, Salsa and Yoruba music. A consummate and electrifying performer, Quetzal exudes a brilliance that is both precious and rare.
