On this week's programme:
Saying goodbye and rest in peace to Rachid Taha, French-Algerian bohemian punk provocateur, and a very frequent audio-presence at my Wicklow Dance Club sessions.
The Plaza Francia Orchestra is a descendant of the Gotan Project, established by two of their members, with Catherine Ringer (of Les Rita Mitsouko) and Lura guesting on vocals.
Michael League’s Bokanté outfit have broadened their musical canvas even further with the addition of the Metropole Orkest from Holland.
Minyeshu Kifle Tedla is a singer from Ethiopia, setting her roots in a contemporary framework.
Canada’s SoulJazz Orchestra were joined by Senegalese singer Elage Mbaye on the final track of their “Under Burning Skies” album.
Harouna Samake, Malian kamale n’goni player and longstanding sideman of Salif Keita, releases his first solo album.
Sekou Ba also accompanied Salif Keita, on guitar and bass, as well as Oumou Sangaré and Fatoumata Diawara.
Jess Sah Bi and Peter One were a charming and unexpected hit in their native Côte d’Ivoire and across West Africa in the 1980s.
French-Antillean musician Gerald Toto is a member of the Toto Bona Lokua trio.
Ann O’aro is another striking voice from La Réunion in the Indian Ocean.
Punch Brothers, led by Chris Thile, are the progressive, even intellectual, face of bluegrass.
Mari Kalkun has conjured her new album from the deep woods of her native Estonia.
The Small Island Big Song project highlights strong cultural messages from musicians of isolated oceanic lands in the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
