Yacub Addy and Odadaa! are so proud to have appeared at The Kennedy Center in Washington, DC with Wynton Marsalis in “LET FREEDOM SWING: A CELEBRATION OF AMERICA”, an event honoring President Barack Obama's Inauguration and Dr. Martin Luther King's Birthday on 01/19/09.
Jazz titan Marsalis and retired Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor led the all-star event which included many jazz greats and hosts Angela Basset and Courtney Vance.
Yacub Addy’s Odadaa! played with Marsalis and his Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, performing "Ajeseke", a dynamic piece from Congo Square, the ground-breaking two hour co-composition Addy and Marsalis wrote together.
