Hailu Mergia
Ethiopian jazz-funk legend Hailu Mergia in his first ever Missouri performance! With a sound blending Ethiopian traditional melodies with American-inspired jazz and funk, Mergia is one of the most beloved and successful acts in Ethiopian history. Since returning to the stage just over a decade year ago, Mergia and his band have performed all over the world including stops at the Montreal Jazz Festival, the Kennedy Center and Radio City Music Hall, receiving stellar reviews for their ecstatic, sweat soaked, high energy performances.
