Hear Mozambican guitarist and vocalist Albino Mbie! With a unique Afro-Pop and Moz-Jazz sound, Mbie combines and captures the energies of different traditions to create a unified and original musical style. 

GBH Music and JazzBoston are co-hosting a new series to showcase the breadth of incredible jazz talent in the Greater Boston area. The event is held on the second Thursday of every month through May.


About Albino Mbie:

Born in Maputo, the capital of Mozambique, Mbie built his first guitar at age 16 from a 5-liter can of oil, scrap wood, and strings made out of electrical cords. Drawn to the sounds of neighborhood street musicians in Maputo, he began to play in a number of local bands. He studied at Berklee and has won numerous awards for songwriting and sound mixing.


GBH Jazz Nights are made possible by the Goldstein Family Fund.
