ESFL and A Greener Read Used Book Store invite you to our ongoing series, “Storytelling through Vinyl & Film.”

May’s film is “Bela Fleck: Throw Down Your Heart” (2008). This documentary follows world-renowned banjoist Béla Fleck, who decided to make a pilgrimage to Africa to rediscover the banjo’s folk music roots. Overflowing with the incredible music of Fleck and the many celebrated folk musicians who hosted him in Africa, the film follows the banjo virtuoso on a musical adventure that takes him from Uganda to Tanzania and from the Gambia to Mali.

5PM join as at A Greener Read Used Book Store (506 Kenny Road, St Paul) for “Vinyl Happy Hour,” to listen to related music, and then at 7PM at ESFL for the film screening and discussion.
