An arresting performer with a deep, resonant voice who’s also a master of the gourd chekeré, the Oakland-based Bobi Céspedes embodies the music’s sacred roots as a priestess in the Yoruba-derived Lucumí faith. Sharing narratives about her family life and love, and the wisdom of Afro-Cuban fables for this special Healdsburg presentation, she’s joined by music director Marco Díaz on piano, trumpet and vocals, guitarist José Roberto Hernández, bassist Ernesto Mazar Kindelán, percussionists Julio Pérez and Javier Navarrette, and Lichi Fuentes on vocals, chekeré and güiro.
