Events › Lift Every Voice 8: African Heritage Month Musical Showcase

TD presents African Heritage Month

Lift Every Voice is a showcase of amazing talent from our African Nova Scotian music community, produced by the African Nova Scotian Music Association. 

Whether the subject be blues, jazz, rock and roll, folk, gospel, RnB, soul, pop, hip-hop, or rap, there is no way to talk about music without talking about Black music and musicians.

This annual event has a reputation for being good for the soul, energizing for the heart, and a grand-scale celebration of Nova Scotia talent.

6:00PM | The African Nova Scotian Jazz Ensemble

This is the debut of a new ensemble of African Nova Scotian jazz musicians performing all Black American Music by Black American jazz composers.

7:00PM | Rhythm of Africa

This vibrant group of Halifax-based musicians performs various genres from the African continent including Afrobeat, Jazz, Soukous and Highlife. The group has graced several notable events like the Mosaic festival, Afrifest and the Most Inspiring Immigrant awards.
