Ribab Fusion debuts at the Morocco pavilion in Epcot 

One of my tips for visiting Disney World's Epcot is to check out the free live entertainment. Canada has lumberjacks. England has a Beatles cover band. China has acrobats. France has street performers. Japan has drummers. And now, Morocco has a new band.  Ribab Fusion combines the traditional single stringed ribab into a Afropop style. Wednesday to Sunday through Jan. 2, 2016.
