Carsen, thanks for the welcome. I hope I can add to the Kenyan contribution here. Good work!

Moin, John!
People from Kenya make up the strongest party of all African nations here on Sawubona - we already had (and hopefully will continue to have) very rich art from there.

Profile Information
- About me:
- Born and raised in Kenya right at the birth of her nationhood, I have the country in my blood and the rhythms of Africa course through my veins.
The guitar is my lover and has never been far away since I was about 11. My moments of relaxation come when I can doodle around, feeling the six strings and coaxing ideas out of the wood.
- How did you come across this Community?
- Through a member who is planning to release some music and poetry here.
- Your favorite music
- Too much to list, but I'm partial to African music since the 60's, from all corners of the continent. My heroes growing up were Fela Kuti, Manu Dibango, Mbaraka Mwinshehe and Hugh Masekela.
- Your favorite author
- William Boyd

And, the songs in my page player which are labeled for Album "Kenya Via Wire" will show up 6 collaborations projects with Kenyan poets. Nothing for a commercial breakthrough but to build little bridges with music. I find, at least those poems all really have something so say.
Let me know if you are into any idea to carry it on!

Hi Carsten, bin heute seit langem mal wieder auf Sawubona gewesen. Hast du die Geschichte mit den Digital Musicians schon gesehen oder getestet? Wie geht es so, was macht die Musik?

cd review
by Norman DarwenThe first four tracks encapsulate Arkansas-born Billy Jones. ...a wicked, raw, live version of Albert King's 'Personal Manager', 'my Hometown', a bleak, stark portrayal of the ghetto set to a busy but laid-back and bluesy musical commentary that epitomizes what some have defined as his "gangsta bluez" (...though it is perhaps even better on 'Ain't Good Lookin'), the rocking, rollicking, down-home, and subtly Howling Wolf inflected 'Blues Comes Callin'' and the bluesy/ reggae…See More
