Irish indie singer-songwriter James Vincent McMorrow earned many accolades for his debut album Early in the Morning, and several of the songs from the album went on to be featured on hit TV series Chuck, Parenthood, and Grey’s Anatomy. After a handful of solo dates earlier this year, James is now making his first headlining tour of the USA, this time with a five-piece backing band. “Playing on my own right now is beautiful because it allows me to connect on a very primitive level,” says James, “but I look forward to being surrounded with friends on stage to share this with me.”

The Cedar invites you to an evening of sublime kora music from Malian master Toumani Diabaté, with backing from the incomparable Symmetric Orchestra. For Toumani, the name of his accompanists evokes a perfect balance - a symmetry - between tradition and modernity, and between the contributions of musicians from a number of closely related countries.
