Celebrate Black History Month with live music for all ages!
All are invited to a special Black History Month performance featuring Afro D & Global Soundwaves, a socially-conscious hip hop/jazz/funk/soul band based in Champaign-Urbana, led by rapper, trumpeter and educator Pete ‘Afro D’ Shungu. The band blends horns, rhythm section and hip hop vocals into soulful music designed to be heard by people of all ages, building bridges across generations, cultures, and communities. The band’s positive messages are designed to inspire people and build community, both locally and globally.
UFLive! concerts are made possible by the generous support of The Urbana Free Library Foundation.
