Popis - DESDES:
Awalom completed 'Desdes' in 2007, not long before he departed
Eritrea. Because Awalom left after the recording, he never
received any money for cassette and CD sales. But he also
didn't get to find out how much of an impact the songs have had
locally. His songs appear to focus on love, but Awalom doesn't
speak about romantic love per se. Much of the music Awalom
heard as he grew up was intertwined with Eritrea's difficult
and contentious split from Ethiopia. He spent years waiting for
the chance to escape economic and political turmoil at home.
Nowadays living in North Carolina, Awalom works in a restaurant and plans to bring his music to Eritrean communities across
North America, as well as to other listeners with whom his
powerful sounds will deeply resonate.
