Sinkane (whose given name is Ahmed Gallab) is known for his unorthodox fusion of funk, rock and alternative music with his Sudanese pop roots. His latest, “Depayse,” is a nine-track effort that came out in May. The London-born Sinkane’s music probably isn’t something you’ve heard before, but he’s not new to the game, however; his career was jump-started by an appearance on “The Late Show With David Letterman” more than a decade ago.
The musician known for his soulful artistry and concise political messages comes to Capital Ale House’s Richmond Music Hall on Sept. 12 at 8 p.m. $12 to $15.
