TPOK Jazz Portrait

TPOK Jazz

The Playing For Change crew was in the Congo recording new songs around the world. On our second day of filming we met this group of amazing musicians in Kinshasa and within minutes they were playing us some songs and sharing their stories. Today’s video is a song titled, “Toyeba Yo.”
The TPOK Jazz Band in Kinshasa keeps the memory of the Immortal Congolese Guitar player, Franco, alive and well. These musicians truly represent the soul of the Congo and they teach us that even in terrible circumstances the artist and the musician must rise up to bring joy and hope to all those who will listen.
