If you didn’t know by now, I’m in South America at the moment. And this has inspired me a lot to start writing again. Check out my two dispatches from Brazil and Colombia published this past March.
Keeping myself busy, I’ve also started a radio show while in Rio. It’s called Africa is a Country Radio, and of course it’s an official partnership with the Africa is a Country Blog. It will be happening once on month Groovalizacion, an online radio station based in Europe with shows from around the world. There will be lots of music, and some fun discussions with guests in coming months, so make sure you keep an eye on the archive on the Groovalizacion website, or on the Africa is a Country website.

Awesome website for anyone who wants to understand the influence of African music on the world.
Hope the May show will happen soon and that it’s as good as the inaugural program.
