‘Red Hot + Fela Live!’

This promising live gathering precedes the release of Red Hot + Fela, the Red Hot AIDS relief organization’s second compilation devoted to the music of Fela Kuti, who died of AIDS-caused Kaposi’s sarcoma in 1997. Superhuman Happiness (which includes members of Antibalas, Tuneyards, and Iron + Wine) anchors the event, which includes appearances by Afrobeat co-creator and drummer Tony Allen, TV on the Radio’s Tunde Adebimpe and Kyp Malone, the Kronos Quartet, Congolese singer Baloji, and Sudanese singer Sinkane.
