Before the Carolina Chocolate Drops, was Sankofa Strings, a trio of multi-instrumentalists dedicated to expressing and preserving the gamut of early AfrAm music: Old Time, Classic Blues, Early Jazz, Jug Band, Spoken Word, Caribbean, African, and more. Four- and five-string banjo, fiddle, jug, ukulele, resophonic guitar, washboard, frame drums, harmonica, brushes, body percussion and more complement inspired and exuberant vocals. Drawing upon the past, but not bound by it, in true Sankofa tradition, "Listening to them is like dropping the needle on a Victrola record"--Mitch Teich, AZ Public Radio
