Back to global matters: 4 August
Every Saturday from 6.30 to 8pm, with your hosts Bully Dux and Phat Kat
A global selection of vinyl and hard to find original tracks from gypsy to African psych rock. With a splash of Don Adams to keep you on your toes!
La Zikabilo is a street brass band from France led by a Cuban trumpeter and Romanian gypsy on guitar. Phat Kat met them and captured a short but powerful interview at the Rainforest World Music Festival in Borneo.
Interview podcast coming soon.
