This episode has two parts; first we will meet Hicham El Kebbaj, Co-ordinator of the Gnaoua Festival now going on in Essaouira, Morocco. Hicham tells us a bit about the festival and Gnaoua culture.

Next we meet Abi Rooley-Towle who is “just a Mum” living with her husband and two sons in Scotland. Abi has an amazing story of inspiration, and shares some of her songs with us. You will be blown away, I guarantee it!

Music by: Hamid El Kasri and Karim Ziad, and Abi Rooley-Towle
