Mamer Meal Deal - A Taste of Xinjiang In association with Roots Round About

Mamer is one of China’s most original young artists, creating lyrical troubadour folk with one foot in the past and the other in the future, infused with an alt.country sensibility and touched with the renegade spirit of everyone from Woody Guthrie to the Velvet Underground and Nick Cave. He grew up steeped in the strong musical tradition of Kazakh nomadic culture and his debut album Eagle features songs of the open grasslands, deeply rooted in traditional Kazakh folk song combined with Western folk and rock with virtuosic performances on guitar, dombra and other traditional instruments. Haunting, lyrical, ambient and subtle, Eagle breathes life into the ancient songs and instruments of this magical landscape.

“Astounding eastern music. Never heard anything like it. Wonderful." Stephen Fry
