AJOYO

Spearheaded by French-Tunisian saxophonist and composer Yacine Boularès, AJOYO has taken the jazz and world music scene by storm with its unique blend of North and West African traditions, jazz and soul. Together with Sarah Elizabeth Charles and Jesse Fischer, the spellbinding six-piece ensemble celebrates life, love and justice through music: music for the heart, the mind and the body, the kind that is soulful, sophisticated and that makes people want to dance.

Awarded Best Global Music EP at the Independent Music Awards in 2020, AJOYO will lead a joyful ceremony in Armor Hall that brings musicians and audiences close together through deep and unrelenting groove, virtuosic improvisations and sophisticated compositions.

This concert is part of “Roots and Branches,” Wave Hill’s indoor concert series featuring artists from across musical disciplines, exploring how traditions and heritage inspire musical exploration and growth. Explore more Roots and Branches concerts here.
