On the Road w/ Adelina S

Traveler and DIY documentarian Adelina S traverses the savannahs and deserts of the Sahel region, recording griots who travel from remote village to village performing to make a living. Through storytelling and field recordings, Adelina shares the winding paths - and the choices - that led to growing close to and be welcomed by this community. From the host: "In this two-part radio programme, Adelina recalls growing up in Lithuania during the 1990s, in the years following independence. Through recorded conversations with her mother, she traces her family’s history of hardship, resilience and survival, with music as a constant thread running through their work"
