The Books Tent

with Aniefiok Ekpoudom and Kalaf Epalanga 

Cultural chronicler and journalist Aniefiok Ekpoudom takes the stage with Angolan novelist and musician Kalaf Epalanga for a journey that takes us from the streets of Luanda to the towns of South Wales (via Lisbon and the West Midlands). Both strive to explore and bring to light the central role music plays in shaping our current experiences of community, resistance, freedom and belonging. What better way to spend some time at a music festival, than to deeper understand the range of possibilities behind the music? Photo credit: Blaow
