Eddy Pace of Evergreen Afrodub Orchestra joins us to talk about following his dream to build a collaborative ensemble of the region's best musicians to come together for the love of reggae, Afrobeat, jazz, and funk. Colossal horns, big percussion, and layered guitars over a backbone of bass describes EAO's mostly instrumental jams, but it doesn't explain how Eddy brought Evergreen Afrobeat together or what it takes to keep a rotating band of 8-10 musicians dedicated to the style of groovy rhythms this band loves to lay down for audiences.
