Linda Tillery and the Cultural Heritage Choir is a Grammy nominated, percussion driven vocal ensemble whose mission is to preserve and share the rich musical traditions of African-American roots music. Through stick, song, dance and story, they transport us to a place in time when the foundations of American popular music were just being laid by the “involuntary immigrants” from Africa’s western regions. Linda Tillery and the Cultural Heritage Choir have become world renowned for their breathtaking performances and commitment to the authenticity of African-American roots music.

“Consisting primarily of a bunch of amazing voices and slew of eclectic African and South American percussion, it’d be easiest to lump them in with Ladysmith Black Mambazo and Zap Mama, but that would be selling them short.” – John Butland, EarthBeat!
