Bassekou Kouyaté & Ngoni Ba will be performing Saturday evening at the Getty Center | Picture via Bassekou Kouyaté's Myspace
Our Pick: Saturday Nights at the Getty w/ Bassekou Kouyaté & Ngoni Ba @ Getty Center
Tonight English indie rockers Gomez will be performing to a sold-out crowd at the Wiltern with none other than local indie rock outfit the Little Ones. Santa Cruz-based bluegrass act the Devil Makes Three are poised to headline the Troubadour. And, lastly, San Jose's own post-rockers Worker Bee will be taking on Spaceland. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Getty Center Mali-based musician Bassekou Kouyaté & Ngoni Ba, who will be performing for this week's edition of 'Saturday Nights at the Getty.'
