Sistas’ Place, 456 Nostrand Avenue, at the corner of Jefferson Avenue, where Jazz: A Music of the Spirit Lives and Culture is our Weapon, is in its 24th year with the music of Resistance, Resilience and Resurgence. On Saturday, March 7th, at 9 and 10:30 pm, we begin our series celebrating Phenomenal African Sistas’ with cellist/vocalist/bandleader Akua Dixon and guitarist Freddie Bryant, bassist Calvin Jones, and drummer Damon Duewhite.

It’s been a while since Akua Dixon has graced our stage but she returns leading a series that she was destined for. The Phenomenal African Sistas’ series is one in which we honor the great women who are either our ancestors or who are presently living among us. As a composer, cellist, vocalist and bandleader, Akua Dixon is the perfect choice.
