First of all, I want to say thank you to the more than 500 folks who donated over $36,000 during WRIR's Spring '14 Fund Drive. And if donating somehow slipped your mind, it's not too late; just click here to spread the generosity:

Johnny Clegg (pictured above with Nelson Mandela), the man who led Juluka, South Africa's most successful (and therefore most dangerous) integrated band, is making a rare appearance in our area: he's at the Lisner Auditorium in DC on Saturday night. In honor of the event, I'll spin a few of my favorites from his catalog on this week's program.
Also this week: a brand new release from Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars; the border sounds of conjunto and mariachi; and a cumbia dance party.
