Sidi Wacho
The 2022 Sessions concert series comes to a close with two more nights of stellar music. Aug. 31 headliner Sidi Wacho features an international roster of players from Chile and France, merging rhythms from South America and Africa with electronica and hip-hop. Bring your dancing shoes because Sidi Wacho is joined by the People Brothers Band and Grupo Candela, with Forró Fo Sho playing in the tent between mainstage sets. Sept. 1 features the Lost Bayou Ramblers, a Louisiana band cross-pollinating Cajun music (mostly sung in Cajun French) with other genres; all-star regional support is provided by Cash Box Kings, The Civil Engineers, and Wagoner & Gaines in the tent. These free, volunteer-run events benefit six area nonprofit organizations: Intertribal Agriculture Council, Centro Hispano, Community Immigration Law Center, NAMI Dane County, WORT-FM and Urban League. Visit sessionsatmcpike.org for the complete schedule and more on the bands.
media release: The Sessions at McPike returns in 2022. The Pursuit of Happiness Session weekend is August 12-14. Evening concerts take place from 5-10 pm on Aug. 18-19 and Aug. 31-Sept. 1.
