So, I stumbled on to this band today ... Tinariwen. I've always loved bands who fused world music in to popular western music - The Police, Paul Simon, et al - but I've never really explored the ethnic music that was at the heart of that influence on these great songwriters.
Besides just writing really beautiful music, Tinariwen has a deep story behind it that really just brings home the importance of music to the human soul.
Check out the track Mataraden Anexan here on YouTube.
