Hi PeterB, Jazz Fest 2015 was fantabulous! Really enjoyed all the music, epecially Snarky Puppy, Ikebe Shakedown, Ranee Lee, War, Tri Def and Tower of Power to name but a few. Big kudos to John Cvetan and the OJF Volunteer Crew--I'll be volunteering again for sure. Lots of like-minded music enthusiasts and, one more thing not related to music--deep fried Oreos! Sinfully good!!!

Shhhh.... Don't tell. I have been playing the heck of Eno's new one on Loosely Connect program too (Weds noon). It sounds JUST AMAZING under headphones.

Hi All, This is a great story of Ondar the groovin' Tuvan...... Vincent, if you are still tuned in--question for you--wasn't that the same kind of throat singing that Paul Pena does? Sounds familiar.

3:33 PM, July 5th, 2015
PeterB (host)
I'd have to look up Pena. But, Ondar is indeed from Tuva.

Also some Ukrainian throat singing in the DakhaBrakha earlier.

3:49 PM, July 5th, 2015
PeterB (host)
Hi again S.A.M. Don't know if you are still following along, but... It seems like Paul Pena would be same style. In fact, a collaborator with the very same Kongar-ol Ondar (Genghis Blues)! I have not had a chance to dig out any of the music yet, but will. Likely suspect for a future TIE show. Here's a link to start: http://fotuva.org/gb/index.html "Converting the world to throat singing lovers, one cat at a time" ;^)

Thank you PeterB--yes, Vincent had guest hosted with us on Welcome To My World with a selection of world musicians with disabilities. Pual Pena is blind. The cats love world music too.
