" (...) Look forward to the brilliant young singer Gasandji, who will open the festival. We are persuaded that she is at the beginning of a great career. Don't miss the Garifuna collective, who carries on the tradition of the unforgettable Andy Palacio. Be nosy and have a look how the Afro German singer Y'akoto, who had a furious premiere at our festival in 2011, evolved. She is going to present songs of her brand-new CD for the first time. Celebrate a wild Caribbean Carnival party with the "young-at-heart" Jolly Boys and Calypso Rose. And be curious about African music "Made in Würzburg"- when Pupkulies & Rebecca meet the Cape Verdean singer and guitarist Tibau. Finally we are glad to introduce the Senegalese singer Cheikh Lô, who was on our wishlist for a very long time. (...)
