Spin the Globe: Live Locally, Groove Globally
Fridays 10-noon (Pacific) on KAOS 89.3 FM Olympia, and streaming live
==============================
The touring Broadway show Fela! about the Nigerian originator of Afrobeat hits Seattle next week. We'll celebrate with songs from the many Afrobeat bands that have since emerged worldwide, from NYC's Antibalas to Portugal's Cacique'97 to Fela's own offspring who are keeping the form vibrant. Plus an interview with Jordan McLean, one of the musical directors of FELA! and a founding member of Antibalas. Join me and get your Afrobeat on!
