Seary, Advocate of Wordz, Helena D. Lewis, Suzen Baraka, Ramya Ramana, Carlos Andrés Gómez, plus Darian Dauchan who will be performing with a loop station. Percussionist Chembo Corniel performs a conga solo, and jazz vocalist Rome Neal will be accompanied by Andre Chez Lewis (piano), Lonnie Plaxico (bass) and Chembo Corniel (congas).
