Experiment: Sansah Kromah

Song Experiment is a monthly song lab hosted by Cassie Norton, welcoming unconventional approaches to songwriting and song sharing. This edition features Frances Greenidge sharing Sansah Kromah, a traditional Ghanaian song and folktale passed down through generations. Supported by Life to Liberation, Greenidge uses storytelling, rhythm and audience participation to share how she discovered the treasured song while teaching in West Africa. The session explores how a simple song can carry messages of belonging, resilience, community and ancestral wisdom across cultures and generations. Life to Liberation is Nigel Barriffe (guitar and vocals), Wally Brooker (saxophones and vocals) and Cassie Norton (violin and vocals), a trio of musician-activists presenting uplifting anti-imperialist and pro-working-class songs in multiple languages and genres. The experience includes listening, singing, reflection and discovering the joy of keeping an ancestral tradition alive. All ages welcome. Admission is pay what you can (PWYC).
