Atlas Project with Jordan and Micah Taylor

Experience traditional West African music, primarily from the Griot tradition of West Africa that dates back to the 12th century and is native to the Mande Kingdom in this unique offering sponsored by the St. Augustine Music Festival.

Jordan Taylor, guitar, and Micah Taylor, cello will present this unique musical program on May 5. The Taylor brothers, who lived for 14 years in Ghana, have done comprehensive research into this traditional music, produced arrangements, and recorded a series of three digital EPs highlighting different traditions. As the result of their deep love for the Ghanaian culture, Jordan founded the Ghana National Music Festival in 2015 to inspire Ghana’s youth towards a career path in music and foster international collaborations between American and Ghanaian artists.

The St. Augustine Art Association is the setting for this incredible event!

Tickets are $20 and available from www.SAMFestival.org
