The 10th edition of the Rainforest World Music Festival in Santubong, near Kuching, Sarawak, from July 13-15, promises to be a reunion to remember, and artistes are already being confirmed for this special anniversary event.
This year, there will be no new acts, with all artistes performing making return visits after having previously taken this annual festival by storm. Acts confirmed thus far hail from the four corners of the world and will eventually total some 20, organisers have revealed.
From Africa come Madagascar’s Tarika Be and Zimbabwe’s Black Umfolosi. Led by charismatic singer songwriter Hanitra Rosoanaivo, Tarika will surely be welcome, while Black Umfolosi makes an unprecedented third visit to the festival.
There’s a large contingent coming in from Europe, including the highly energetic Gaelic-rock band Shannon from Poland, the Sicilian group Tammora, and Huun Huur Tu and Malerija from Tuva, Russia.
