Buika

Buika was born in Palma De Mallorca to African parents who had been exiled as political dissidents from their native Equatorial Guinea. In collaboration with noted producer Javier Limón, she recently released Mi Niña Lola—a stunning statement of flamenco-fueled power that has garnered awestruck praise the world over.

Garifuna Women's Project

Propelled by the infectious rhythms of Garifuna drumming and the support of Andy Palacio and producer Ivan Duran, Umalali documents the dynamic vocal artistry of some 50 Garifuna women from Honduras, Guatemala and Belize. Seven years in the making, the album eloquently portrays the ongoing struggle to

preserve the Garifuna way of life.

Larry Kirwan
Famous for his outspoken political stance, his shrewd yet poetic observations, and his ability to address the struggles and triumphs of anyone with even a trace of the Irish in their family tree, Larry Kirwan is a poet, singer composer, playwright, author-and last but not least, frontman for "New York's bar band," Black 47.

Big Chief "Bo" Dollis
It was Theodore Emile "Bo" Dollis who, along with his childhood friend Monk Boudreaux, folded a swamp funk sound into New Orleans Mardi Gras culture to create a funk-rock band called the Wild Magnolias, one of the most influential New Orleans bands playing today.

Ziggy Marley
Filmed during the 2005 Africa Unite symposium and the conference held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, as part of Bob Marley's 60th birthday celebration, Africa Unite chronicles the work that the Marley family has done to fulfill Bob's hopes for a unified land. Ziggy Marley talks about the project and the family's trip to the motherland.

Steve Reid
Steve Reid has played the drums behind Jimi Hendrix, John Coltrane, Fela Kuti, James Brown, Miles Davis, and many others. For his new album, Daxaar, with the Steve Reid Ensemble, he returned to the continent, recruited some of the top local players and told them simply to jam. And jam they did.
