Cyrus Mackey brings together his wide-ranging experience in African American musical traditions with his band, Kenyatta. This performance celebrates the spirit of unity and social music, leaving the audience with an unforgettable experience.
Kenyatta is a radiant fusion of the many musical voices of the African Diaspora—where jazz, soul, gospel, Afrobeat, and beyond meet on one stage. Led by trumpeter and composer Cyrus "Cy" Mackey, the band draws on his wide-ranging experience in African American musical traditions to create a sound that feels both deeply rooted and boldly forward-looking. After a year of sold-out shows in Baltimore, Kenyatta has grown into a true community of music lovers, gathering around groove, improvisation, and shared joy. This performance is a celebration of unity and social music: a space where rhythms connect, melodies uplift, and the audience becomes part of the experience.
Over the past years, Kenyatta has steadily grown into a vibrant gathering place for a devoted and expanding community of listeners, united by groove, improvisation, and shared joy
