For the Washington City Paper, I spoke with Ethiopian guitarist Selam Seyoum Woldermariam who plays with singer Mahmoud Ahmed. They are together on an Ethiopiques album or two, and both currently live in the Washington D.C. area.
In this City Paper blogpost I also highlighted a number of non-Western global music events going on. D.C. continues to have a thriving atmosphere for a number of international genres.
