Led by Ethiopian-American jazz saxophonist Danny Mekonnen, Jamaica Plain's Debo Band plays world jazz. Their sound combines traditional East African polyrhythms and pentatonic scales, classic American soul and funk music, and the instrumentation of Eastern European brass bands. Their recently released debut EP, 'Flamingoh' (Pink Bird Dawn) documented the band's trip to East Africa in Winter 2010.
