No matter the event, Baba’s enchanting interactions are, without fail, the most riveting you will ever have the pleasure of experiencing.
Says Baba, “I didn’t pursue this life of a musician and storyteller. Sometimes it just feels like there are things you are born to do. The themes of history, culture and traditions interwoven throughout my performances are there so that I can acknowledge the the importance of the past as a catalyst for things to be done in our futures. For me, this is what the Craft of Jaliyaa is about. Stories, history, music and words illustrate the necessity of human interdependence. No matter how sharp an axe may be, it will never cut its’ own handle.”
