Description
On September's WorldBeatUK, Glyn brings you psychedelia from Turkey, Colombia and Azerbaijan, hiplife from Ghana, son montuno from Cuba and americana from, well, America!
But there are also alternative takes on ragas and talas from an Indian in London and Indian music by a Tunisian in Tamil Nadu, both with singers trained in the Southern Indian Carnatic tradition - as well as back-to-the-roots blues by an American in Mali.
There's Mexican cumbia from beyond the grave in Monterrey, San Franciscan latin fusion from the Mission, religious music honouring afro-brazilian orixas from the world of candomblé, Brazilian music honouring women, and a bluesy ode to a nine pound banjo.
Did I mention Senegalese singer Modou Touré is taking us on a journey? Or that Shtreiml take us to a land where chromatic blues meets Jewish Shtetl music? And what about the peacocks and desert lions? John The Baptist and the Preacher Man? Kings and Queens?
All this and much more on September's WorldBeatUK!
