Ebony Roots is a powerful concert celebration of music from the African Descent/Black experience—tracing a 300-year journey from work songs and spirituals to the rise of Soul, R&B, Blues, and Motown. It highlights the evolving emancipation and cultural impact of African Descent communities from a North American perspective.
Produced by Brandon Thornhill, with mentorship and admin support from Sound the Alarm: Music/Theatre, the concert features a dynamic lineup of BC-based African Descent artists: Brandon Thornhill and Leo D.E Johnson (vocalists), Olaf de Shield (MD/guitarist), Russell Jackson (bass), Carlos Joe Costa (percussion), and Wayne Stewart (keyboard).
Following its sold-out premiere at Vancouver’s Yaletown Roundhouse in February 2024, Ebony Roots is touring eight BC communities during Black History Month 2026.
Every second Tuesday -from 6-9 pm-hosted by Dennis Pook.
