Has it been too long since STG has had a kora player in the KAOS performance studio? I’m thinking yes. So this week, Sean Gaskell plays the West African harp for us, and catches us up on his musical adventures.

The winter holidays often find us gathering with family… this week we celebrate families in all their messy and delightful forms with music about mothers and sons and grandfathers and sisters and how they eat and quarrel and love and make music together. Plus a live in-studio set from Danish trio Gangspil, who are on tour.

Politicians have been having a field day talking about refugees and immigrants, but I’m thinking musicians have a better idea of what the experience of refugees and immigrants actually is, since many of them have experienced it first-hand. We hear their songs this week. Plus a live in-studio set from Yogoman as they kick off a USA tour.
