Here's four words you don't hear often these days: good news from Zimbabwe. That's what Mokoomba (pictured above) is -- a young band from Victoria Falls making excellent original music, reaching an audience at home and around the world. You'll hear a track from their soon-to-be-released third album on this week's program, along with a couple of the Zimbabwean international music stars who preceded them.
Also this week: new reggae by Mellow Mark and Meta & The Cornerstones, from Boricua roots to samba-soul, and modern Afrobeat from the Americas -- Sao Paulo, Austin, Los Angeles and Ottawa.
