New York (TADIAS) – Teddy Afro, Ethiopia’s biggest pop star, will perform in New York city next week.
The singer – who made an appearance at a sold-out concert in the Bay Area during the recently concluded 2010 Ethiopian Soccer Tournament – will stage a show in Manhattan on Saturday, July 17th at 630 Second ave, bet 34th and 35th streets.
Afro, born Tewodros Kassahun, is known as Ethiopia’s Bob Marley, mostly for his socially conscious lyrics and his incorporation of roots-reggae rhythms into his version of Ethiopian grooves.
He kicked off his American tour last fall in Washington, D.C.
