In Search of Sankofa: Exploring African Sounds
Zak Vincent of Time Again Radio Show Covering for the Haberdasher tonight as we dive into a slight exploration of the great continent of Africa. There’s decades of rich music to be found in these rhythms and songs, so this show can serve little more than a primer for anyone who ends up interested. I do hope it inspires any and all to look into the music outside of our borders, the importance and reward of doing so cannot be overstated. Enjoy, enjoy , enjoy
