JazzWorldQuest Proposals: "Addis Acoustic Project"

"Addis Acoustic Project" is a six piece band that I formed in 2008. The groups focuses on the 1950's Ethiopian classic melodies and I do rearrangements with the influence of jazz and other contemporary musical styles including East African musical tradtions. Addis Acoustic released an album "Tewesta" in August 2011 on Harmonia Mundi / World Village Label. The group has been featured on various festivals in its home town Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and internationally including Womex'09 in Copenhagen, Selam Festival in Stockholm, and the Rudolstadt Fetival in Germany among others. I very much hope to feature my group on many more jazz and world music stages.
