WELCOME!
African, Latin & Caribbean music.
We start with a couple of 1970s classics from Burkina Faso, one of which is Amaou Ballake’s original song about money problems, “Wariko”.

Boats in Colombia Boats in Cabo Verde
WELCOME!
The Motherland Influence plays African, Latin & Caribbean music every week.
Today we’ll start by listening to music from Colombia and Cabo Verde then more from Colombia and Cabo Verde,
From accordions to horns, great vocals and deep basslines, complex percussion and guitars. From cumbia to funana – and a whole lot more – there’s a lot of commonality in the music we will play for you today.
You can kick back or kick up some dust.
Later in the program, we’ll spin off to Brazil, Angola, Haiti, Peru and more.
