Reimagining Country w/ Jamal Khadar

FolkSouth African JazzCountry

Culture journalist Jamal Khadar takes a trip through country music’s hidden roots and surprising global connections—in search of a more personal, nuanced view of what it means to be a country fan. From African-Country crossovers to Jamaica’s country connection, and the continuous role of Southern Soul in remaking country.

From the host: "A globe-spanning hour drifting from the South African jazz of the late, great Abdullah Ibrahim (Dollar Brand) to Zimbabwean country-guitar, Cajun bayous, cowpunk and Korean rockabilly along the way."
