In many ways, the sixth studio album by Timothy Showalter aka Strand Of Oaks is a turning point for him in many ways. It's a personal confrontation with his own demons on one side and a huge step forward in terms of quality and songwriting on the other. 'Weird Ways' is the six-minute long opening epos and it's without any doubt one of 2019's most beautiful songs. For us, the songwriter recalls the story behind it in his own words.
Ibeyi, the twins. Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Diaz, the sister duo that moves in between worlds physically and spiritually. Raised between Cuba and France, they draw from their Afro-Cuban roots and Yoruba traditions as well as from contemporary Afro-beat scene and Latin jazz. They just released their third LP "Spell 31", which pays tribute to the ancestry and the traditions present in the musicians' upbringing and bridges earthly explorations with celestial connectivity.
