Has anyone ever heard Baka Beyond that will be at Epcot 7/29-8/10?

We will be at WDW Aug 2-9 and I was checking to see what the live show was going to be at the American Adventure, America Gardens Theatre. It is going to be Baka Beyond. Has anyone ever heard them? We have two DS's (9 and 6). Will they like it or should we just skip it?

Thanks for any help!!

I have never heard of that group/ person. I'll bump it up for you though.

The punningly named Baka Beyond is a collaboration between former Outback guitarist Martin Cradick and the denizens of Cameroon's rain forests, the Baka pygmies. Using their traditional rhythmic patterns alongside Western technology and musicianship, Spirit Of The Forest managed to amalgamate these disparate sources into a series of haunting soundscapes. ...

I found that on the Lycos music site. (I did a Google search for Baka Beyond, but several of the pages it referenced were very slow loading.)

Their home page is www.baka.co.uk/bakab/, but I could not get it to load.

Now I got it to load. A blend of Celtic and African music; I'll be at WDW during this time - I think they sound like a band worth hearing - my older son (a Dave Matthews and Bela Fleck fan) will probably like them as well.

Thanks for pointing it out to me!

I first heard Baka Beyond in the mid-90's on our local NPR station - pygmie music! I have two CDs - Heart of the Forest and Spirit of the Forest. Good listening - wish I was there in August to see them.
