Chopteeth is a DC-based 14-piece Afrofunk orchestra, mixing Fela Kuti inspired Afrobeat, modern jazz, Yoruba tribal music, James Brown-inspired rhythms, Ghanaian dance tunes, Senegalese rumba and Jamaican ska.  They have their debut album coming out on the 23rd, which features a collaboration with Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars, but you can pick it up a few days early at the CD release show this Sat (9/20/2008).

We have a pair of tickets to give away for this event, so just comment below and say you want them and we’ll email the winner by Friday.  Deal?

I’ve got a friend coming into town from Brooklyn this weekend, so please help me give him a taste of what’s he’s missing here in DC (other than bomb-strapped polar bears)!

I repeat…..why isn’t this on the calendar? Seems kinda silly seeing as how there are tickets being given away and it’s listed under best weekend bets. Might want to add it :)

Because Svet has no internet, Libby is in Detroit, and I’m scrambling to get everything posted while not getting fired from my day job. Will get it up soon.
