Musician Janka Nabay brings Sierra Leonean sound to Brooklyn
After becoming a national phenomenon in his home country of Sierra Leone, Janke Nabay struggled for years to break through the American music scene. His eclectic interpretation of “bubu,” traditional Sierra Leonean music with roots in 500-year-old mythology, eventually found a home in Brooklyn. Nabay’s debut album came out Aug. 7.
