Nomo Live
Hear this show now:
Pop-up player!
Nomo
is a supertight Afrobeat-inspired but wide-ranging 8-piece that came
together at sweaty all-night house parties in Ann Arbor, Michigan. In addition
to your usual percussion, guitars, keyboards, horns etc, the band features
homemade instruments created by bandleader Elliot Bergman with fellow
Michigander Warren Defever. Defever's band His Name is Alive
shares several
members with Nomo, and he produced the band's scorching new cd New Tones
(on
Ubiquity).
The band tours regularly and will be showcasing at this year’s WOMEX
world music conference, held October 25-29 in Sevilla, Spain.
Nomo hits us with live versions from this cd as well as their
self-titled 2004 debut disc on Fred Thomas's Ypsilanti Records.
