BLK JKS & Vieux Farka Toure @ the Highline Ballroom

My favorite South African friends, the BLK JKS, have been taking over NYC for the past month or so. I finally got a chance to catch up with them last night at the Highline Ballroom. And as a bonus I got to see one of my favorite artists from Mali, Vieux Farka Toure. And what a show it was! BLK JKS have tightened their sound and gotten more creative with it to boot. Linda, Mpume, Molefi & Tshepang rocked the stage like the true rock stars they are. Watching Vieux Farka Toure was just as awe inspiring. But the highlight at the Highline last night was when he asked the BLK JKS to join him on stage. Never have I seen so much talent on one stage before. Best show of the year thus far!
