Get your Afrobeat on tomorrow (Wed.) at the Gramophone with Afromotive.

The up-tempo, high energy group out of Asheville, NC, is led by Adama Dembele from Cote d‘Ivoire, West Africa. He’s a thirty-third generation djembe player, according to the band. (Quick, what did your grandfather to the 32nd degree do for a living?)

Afromotive
10:30 pm Wed., The Gramophone, 4243 Manchester Ave., $5
