Afripop Sessions, at MoCADA museum in Brooklyn last night, put me on to an amazing soul/folk/electronic singer-guitarist, Denitia Odigie. I have a new music crush. Check out this little vid I shot of "Lay Our Burdens Down," made even more poignant by its juxtaposition to the Katrina-inspired performance video art, by Tameka Norris, playing on the back wall.

Denitia Odigie performs at Afripop Sessions from iquomma on Vimeo.

Check out her band Denitia and Sene, on a U.S. tour through December 11.  And read an interview of Denitia and Sene in Interview Magazine.
