Monday night, The Highline Ballroom was host to an evening of international sounds as Nigerian-born, German-raised songstress Nneka filled the house to capacity. Nneka's songs recalled Fela Kuti's political message and the rythms and sounds of the diaspora.

Opening for the show, Bajah + Dry Eye crew, formerly of Sierra Leone, now of Brooklyn, got the audience hopping. Bajah was last seen here at Brooklyn Bowl's Coolhunter Jam last fall.
