WOMEX: New World Music via Europe
Hear this show now:
Pop-up player!
Rob is joined by print journalists Tom Pryor (Global Rhythm) and Anastasia Tsioulcas
(Billboard). All three attended WOMEX,
the pacesetting world music convention held every October in Europe (this year
in Essen, Germany). They clue us
in on what's hot and what's not, and share new musical discoveries.
