The Grape's Upcoming Shows

The smooth world jazz group Native Vibe consists of bassist Nee Sackey and guitarist Bill Macpherson, a duo brought together by a series of unusual coincidences and a love of African and jazz music. Both Sackey and Macpherson were born in the U.S. -- Sackey in New York, Macpherson in Los Angeles -- and moved to Africa with their families at a young age. The son of Ghana's ambassador to the United States, Sackey was a child prodigy, composing and performing music at 11. Macpherson arrived in Africa at age eight, and though he didn't pursue music until he was an adult, growing up surrounded by African music and rhythms planted the seeds of his love of music and his future career. Current line up: George Friedenthal, Phil Rodriguez, Rafael Langa, Ed Smith, Karl Hunter, Randy Tico, Bill Macpherson.
