McCoy Mrubata On The World Show With Nicky B

Loading player...
One of the most significant figures in South African jazz, renowned saxophonist, flautist, composer, and bandleader McCoy Mrubata, joins us on The World Show. We'll be delving into his profoundly introspective and personal new album, "Children on the Frontline," which weaves themes of resiliency, generational memory, and the wisdom of African storytelling to create a conversation between the past and present. The album becomes a rallying cry for hope as well as a call for peace, addressing the predicament of children caught in conflicts from Sudan and Gaza to the Congo.
