Add or read comments
Nikhil P. Yerawadekar spread his wings with leading lights of New York's Afrobeat Revival like Antibalas and Akoya Afrobeat - but that's just a starting point. His high-octane band Low Mentality adds rock, reggae, calypso, hip-hop, funk and more to the mix. And they explore classic East African grooves in their collaboration with Ethiopian keyboard great Hailu Mergia.
Nikhil and Low Mentality rock WFMU live tonight ahead of shows at NuBlu, 62 Ave C in the East Village on Friday December 19th, and with Hailu Mergia at Baby’s All Right
, 146 Broadway in Brooklyn on Friday January 9th and at Drom, 85 Ave A in the East Village on Saturday January 10th.
Massive thanks to our illustrious engineer Dan Barker and assistant Serge Zbrizher!
