Benguela Cape Town, South Africa
Every gig Benguela play is a spur of the moment, creative cesspool that straddles both the ambient and angular.
Brydon Bolton (double bass), Alex Bozas (guitar), Ross Campbell (drums)

A Year of Swimming
by Derek Gripper
Moving on from his beautiful transpositions of Malian Kora music, Derek brings us a mix of Baaba Maal, Mansour Seck, Salif Keita, Madosini and his own compositions - truly fantastic guitar.

Libraries on Fire

supported by 4 fans who also own “Varkpan”
Spending hours on One Night on Earth wasn't enough. My addiction to Derek's kora translations is too strong. I'm hooked. I'm happy.
