Fatoumata Diawara is an engaging young West African actress turned singer who performs original songs blending Wassalou traditions of Southern Mali with international influences. Her debut cd Fatou was recently released by Nonesuch / World Circuit. She's one of the dozen artists selected to play the prestigious annual globalFEST world music showcase at Webster Hall on Sunday January 13.
You'll understand why she made the cut when you hear tonight's broadcast of her triumphant New York Debut September 28, 2012 at Pace University's
Michael Schimmel Center For the Arts beautifully remixed for radio by engineer extraordinaire Don Wood.
Special thanks to John Seroff of Greenhouse Publicity and Isabel Soffer of
LiveSounds, producer of the concert and co-producer of globalFEST.
We also play lots of preview tracks by artists coming to NY to play Globalfest and other Arts Presenters Conference - APAP - showcases. There are a lot of them - here's the very handy Unofficial Guide to World Music at APAP.

We assume your puny metropolis is still busy remaking and remodeling from that climate attack. Just keep this music in transmit mode, or suffer the consequences. We would insert an evil laugh but this music disarms it. | |

Why this music not planet-wide "hit"? Is your culture not spiritually homogeneous? We see it you do not. We start record label. "Serving Man." Extruded vinyl. Side of spice. | |

The pic of Ken on bike after Sandy is epic. His tale of FMU as an offshore island, also epic, potentially piratical. Can the station assert some kind of offshore economic zone claims? Maybe go dredging around the Port of Elizabeth? Maybe stake a claim to all the clams? | |

Webster Hall is a big old ballroom / dance hall (originally opened 1886) with a couple of extra rooms put into play for events like Globalfest. (People my age also remember its 80s incarnation as rock club The Ritz.) The way it's set up for Globalfest is: 3 stages: The small mostly standing room "studio" downstairs, middle sized sit-down (if you can find a seat) "Marlin Room" and much more spacious stand-up Ballroom. At the peak of the event around 11 pm the downstairs rooms can get a little crammed. But it's fun to move back and forth between the rooms, nonstop music... and there are areas you can hang out and take a break. |
