Umalali

Thursday, April 03, 2008

Belizean singer and guitarist Andy Palacio put his culture of Garifuna - a mix of West African and native Central American peoples – on the world music map last year. When he died suddenly last January, he was about to tour with the group Umalali. Umalali join us to talk about Garifuna music after Palacio, and to play live in the studio.

Umalali perform in a tribute to Andy Palacio on Fri. Apr. 4 at Symphony Space at 8 pm.

    not sure where to comment on this, but re: jay z. isn't live nation clearchannel? how does that not count as a major label? they're huge and evil. don't imply people are moving to smaller labels or indie labels or something. wal-mart, live nation, starbucks. this is really gross.
