Description
Palestinian, Lebanese & British DJ Kamar (pronounced Ah-Mar) presents Tealeaves, dedicated to exploring sound through migration.
In each show, Kamar highlights music made by migrant artists, both new and old, from a plethora of time and places, inviting migrant artists, zoning in on their culture and community, exploring how the movement of people has intersected with music.
This month, Kamar welcomed Cymande, the legendary group of Black British musicians, who all came to the UK from the Caribbean as children, released three brilliant albums in quick succession in the early 70s and were embraced in the USA, and toured with Al Green. In the UK, however, they faced a music business beset by prejudice against home grown black talent and were largely ignored.
