Global Rhythm Radio w/ Special Guest Ian Brennan

Design by Andres Duarte

A special broadcast of Global Rhythm Radio featuring conversations with Grammy-award winning producer IAN BRENNAN (Tinariwen, Zomba Prison Project). Throughout the program, your host Parisa and Ian discuss the issues with the Grammy's global nominations, rooting music consumption in anti-racist practices, the new Witch Camp album from Ghana, and much more.

Hailed as the modern heir to the legendary ethnomusicologist Alan Lomax, Ian Brennan has amassed one of the largest and most diverse bodies of field recordings in history. Brennan travels in search of countries and languages whose music is under-represented internationally, making field recordings of musicians and producing albums of their work. Aside from his non-profit production, charity fundraising, and political activism, Brennan has published several books, most recently his 2019 release Silenced by Sound: the Music Meritocracy Myth.
