The second edition of the Cleveland Museum of Art’s global music series City Stages featured a knockout performance by Haitian-Canadian band Wesli, an eight-piece ensemble fronted by vocalist/guitarist Wesley Louissaint. The polyglot music of this Montreal-based group draws on Afrobeat, Latin, hip hop, soul, reggaeton, reggae, traditional Haitian music, and American pop and rock to create something that’s really different from your standard indie band.
