 Europe In Union Online Concerts Radio 3 and fRoots magazine ran a series of concerts featuring World on Your Street artists at London's Union Chapel. The artists supported some of Europe's finest roots innovators Think Of One, Mercedes Peon and Ross Daly. Sorry the concerts were only available online for one year after Radio 3's broadcast. fRoots magazine World on Your Street  January 18th 2004 Sometimes the best things are right on your doorstep. It took a while, but the waves generated by Belgium's amazing musical hyperactives Think Of One are finally breaking on our shores. And they were winners at this year's R3 Awards for World Music.  January 18th 2004 Abdul Tee-Jay hails from Sierra Leone and his exceptional guitar talents shine brightly in this performance. Recently his repertoire includes the beautiful acoustic palm wine music.  February 15th 2004 Mercedes Peon burst on the international music scene with her debut, Isue, a record of traditional and original Galician music that both reveres the past and also picks it up by the scruff of the neck and carries it into the modern age. But behind it all is a very and lengthy devotion to Galician musical history, and not so much the piping that has given the region recent prominence, but the vocal tradition that has mostly been ignored. |
