The Melodic - Effra Parade Music CD

The young band from Brixton, South London offer a vibrant new brand of afro folk pop that, while inspired by '60s folk, incorporates an assortment of influences from around the world. Its members utilize instruments such as the Charango, Melodica and Kora to create a music that joyously defies categorization and exhibits a clear reverence for past masters from Paul Simon to Bert Jansch, while mixing in sounds from Latin America, the Caribbean and Africa to create a music entirely their own.
