A blog about world and global music from a guy who co-hosts the KUNM Global Music Show, 89.9 FM Albuquerque/Santa Fe, http://www.kunm.org. I post one song a day, with reflections on the music, life, and whatever else comes into my mind.

Globalquerque Video 1: Lo'Jo on the Plaza Mayor Stage
The opening act of Globalquerque, Lo'Jo, kicked off the festival with a bang on September 19th at the Plaza Mayor Stage at the National Hispanic Cultural Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Lo'Jo is from France, and was founded in 1981 in Angers by Denis Péan (singer/keyboards) and Richard Bourreau (violin/kora). They released their first album in 1993, and in 1995 added the members that make up their present lineup - Berber singer/saxophonist Yamina Nid El Mourid and her sister Nadia (vocalist). This brought them more recognition on the world music stage, and they were subsequently added to the WOMAD circuit. They have released ten albums. This video was shot by Michael L. Hess, edited with YouTube and is hereby presented to you. I don't normally post phone-filmed video but my phone seems to get decent sound. I don't know the name of the song Lo'Jo performed.
