Zap Mama to Play Wilkins Theatre

Known worldwide as Zap Mama, Marie Daulne redefines the term vocalist. Creatively expressing sound and storytelling with tone and pure voice, Marie is a sonic stylist. From Belgium and Congo, she seamlessly blends African, European and American musical styles into eclectic arrangements of modern sound. Expanding upon American Soul, Jazz, Afro-beat and Pop-world music Marie creates a genre that connects the citizens of the world. Her current reinterpretation of acappella music is a rich palette of musical styles, including Urban, Afro-scat, World and Alternative Funk.

Born in a Brooklyn warehouse in 1997, 12-piece ensemble Antibalas is credited with introducing Afrobeat to a wider global audience, influencing countless musicians and developing a live show that is the stuff of legend. Originally inspired by Fela Kuti's Marxist-with-a-monster-groove stylings, the dozen-plus Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra is now world famous for its hot music (and equally incendiary political message). Antibalas weaves a fascinating tapestry of Latin, jazz, funk, reggae and soul into kinetic performances featuring dazzling horn lines and gutsy guitar.
