Olu Dara and the Okra Orchestra

Part actor, part dancer, and part comedian, Olu Dara blends r&b, jazz, Caribbean, and African styles. His orchestra consisted of himself on the cornet, Greg Bandy (drums), Craig Harris (trombone), Kevin Harris (bass), Vincent Henry (sax), Coster Massamba (percussion), and Kwatei Quartey (guitar). Most recently he's featured his musical skills on tracks recorded by his son, the rapper Nas.
