Ex-Refugee Spreads Peace Through Music
Black Nature is an original musical artist who composes and performs positive music that incorporates a unique blend of African rhythms, Reggae, Dancehall, Rock, Hip-Hop and R&B. As a young child, Black Nature began singing and playing percussion, and he was greatly influenced by the rich musical culture of Sierra Leone. In the midst of the country’s brutal 10 year civil war, he fled and found himself in a refugee camp in neighboring Guinea. During his time at the camp, he and some other Sierra Leonean refugees formed a band that later became the world-renowned, Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars. Black Nature (lead vocals/percussions), Larissa Rocha (vocals), Danielle Spoor (vocals), Miles Escobedo (drums), Ian Sabado (guitar/ vocals), Terrance Blackman (sax/guitar), Mike Rollins (bass), Isaac Ho (keyboard).
