New Years Eve with The Fritz and Zansa at Asheville Music Hall

Asheville Music Hall will be closing out the year 2014 with an All-Star Asheville mix of Afro-pop and Funk as they celebrate New Years Eve in style, with two of the best local bands Asheville has to offer! The Fritz and Zansa will be coming together to give Asheville one of the best musical nights it’s ever seen. This eclectic melding of genres will provide your ears and feet with plenty of material to get them moving. This show takes place on New Years Eve, December 31st at 8pm.

The Fritz is a funk jamband originally from Florida who transplanted to Asheville in 2010 as a whole unit. They were immediately, and warmly, welcomed into the vibrant, local music scene and have continued to have solid success in Asheville, as well as touring all over the country. Zansa is led by 33rd generation West African musician Adama Dembele. Zansa is a Nouchi slang word from Ivory Coast meaning “combination” or “blend and the band describes themselves as “a synthesis of traditional and modern styles of West African afropop.”
