Today, its back to WOMEX 1997 – after a fallow year, we headed to Marseille. As well as African greats Dimi mint Abba (Mauritania) and Cheikh Lô (Senegal) and future WOMEX Award Winner Djivan Gasparyan (Armenia), we were joined by one of the worlds hottest brass bands, Fanfare Ciocărlia (Romania). We had em 9 years before their cover of Born to Be Wild brought them success via the soundtrack to the film Borat! Heres a mini-concert they filmed for NPR Music: twelve musicians squeezed into a tiny space and bursting with energy. Have fun! bit.ly/1mWGGNf #20YearsofWOMEX
