The winds of autumn have carried SOMI back to The Blue Note for another amazing show! Monday, November 1st, 2004 she will return to the legendary stage to exhale a belly full of stories on life, love, and liberation. Originally from Uganda and Rwanda, SOMI's music gives voice to the post-colonial African experience in the Diaspora with an authentic blend of the contemporary and the traditional. SOMI is currently working on a new recording project entitled “Red Soil In My Eyes" which celebrates her East African heritage while staying true to soul and jazz traditions. The juxtaposition of her mellifluous voice and the acoustic composition of her band creates organic textures that are at once haunting and sweet, subtle and profound. Join us for an evening of sound and inspiration. $15 at the table or $10 at the bar. Reservations are recommended. Learn more about SOMI at www.somisunshine.com
