I got to experience Aphrodesia on Sat night at Coopers Saloon in Nevada City, CA. They are an 11 piece musical extravaganza featuring a highly original brand of ‘Super Aphro Beat' mixed with a very uncompromising political stance. From San Francisco these guys filled Coopers and everyone was dancing up a storm to their African sound. They just returned from an incredible journey that took them from a small village market in Binaba, Ghana, to the stage of the legendary Shrine in Lagos, Nigeria, where Aphrodesia was the first American band ever to play. I'm sure glad they came to Nevada City. Looking forward to their return to our area.
