Monsieur Doumani: Edgy New Roots Music From Cyprus, Recorded at WOMEX 2019
Listen to this show:
Pop-up player!
The politically outspoken Cyprus-based trio Monsieur Doumani blends traditional influences with contemporary elements, both musical and topical. They've certainly struck a chord: The band's latest album Angathin topped the Transglobal world music DJ chart, they've won critics' awards in Italy and Germany and three award nominations from UK-based Songlines magazine. And they showcased at October's influential WOMEX World Music Expo in Finland. Join us on Saturday for Rob's interview with Monsieur Doumani and their WOMEX EBU radio studio session!
Check out Monsieur Doumani's excellent third album Angathin as well as their earlier releases Sikoses and Grippy Grappa: https://monsieurdoumani.bandcamp.com/

Here's a link to the Arts Covid Big List/ – an extensive list of Relief and Resources For Artists, Freelancers, and Non-Profits:

Also: BRIC has created a great resource list for artists during the viral crisis:
How the Arts and Culture Sector Can Prepare for the Coronavirus in the United States
As we take heightened precautions to support public health initiatives, including temporarily closing our doors, we want to maintain our unwavering support of the artistic and creative community and ensure that you continue to thrive. To that end, we have compiled a list of shared resources from local and national arts and culture organizations.
These resources offer assistance, such as financial support and opportunities for artists to continue to express their creative potential during these difficult times. They should not be mistaken for public health information distributed by city and state authorities.
In the coming days and weeks, finding ways to support one another will become especially crucial. At BRIC, we reaffirm our commitment to support visual artists, performers, and media makers as we unite Brooklyn through art and creativity, together, to build community and make change. We hope you will find the links below to be of use to you and your creative community as we all navigate the impact of the novel Coronavirus/COVID-19.
We will continue to add new links and resources over the coming weeks. Please check our blog for updates, or follow BRIC on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook @bricbrooklyn.

We are often walking around a spotted brown dog who looks way too cool and attractive to be slumming it with the likes of us. Wave if you see us!

& yes -- as cynical as i am, i think the 7pm thing is really positive too -- i have seen more than just a few comments, etc. from health care workers & other emergency workers who are really touched by it all :)
yesterday, Bill Withers' "Lean On Me" was blasting in my part of Hoboken! even though a Whitney Houston song was the "scheduled" song for the night
