Concerts on the Creek | Kaira Ba

This month, Concerts on the Creek features Kaira Ba. Kaira Ba fully believes in their band’s name (“The Great Peace.”) Co-founder and kora player Diali Cissokho, who immigrated to North Carolina from Senegal in 2010, comes from a long line of prominent hereditary griots – people who are entrusted to maintain a West African village’s genealogies and important ceremonial affairs through song. Get ready to dance! You can learn more about Kaira Ba by going to https://www.kairabamusic.com/ 

A relaxed, open-air weekend music experience, Concerts on the Creek is Hub RTP’s monthly live music program featuring regional artists on the Hub RTP Stage. This series invites you to grab a lawn chair, spread out a picnic blanket, or wander the grounds while enjoying local sounds between lunch and dinner. With Burdens Creek and vibrant murals as the backdrop, take in the scenery and enjoy the fresh air. This series is perfect for families, friends or anyone looking to spend a leisurely weekend afternoon immersed in the Hub RTP community.
