Zoumountchi

Bandleader Ibrahim Aminou is originally from Niger, West Africa and brings a lifetime of African/Afrobeat music performance experience. Zoumountchi, led by Ibrahim Aminou, is the house band for Sahara Lounge's Saturday Africa Night and takes the stage at 11p and rocks the house until 1am. A 7 piece band, complete with horn section and percussion, Zoumountchi provides an energetic pulse for dancing and listening. In addition to the dancing, and fabulous music, people love the diverse crowd. You could be dancing or talking with someone of any ethnic background, profession or economic class. Conversations in the backyard range from global politics, social and environment concerns to sharing of personal struggles and triumphs. The free buffet dinner is of course a draw – Spicy meatballs or chicken, vegetarian beans and rice with vegetables and tortilla chips.
