The Numero Group - Laraaji Special

Chicago, 16.11.17

Focus on Laraaji

In the great new age music revival of the 21st century, no artist has received more attention than the one and only Laraaji. This former actor and standup comedian followed his intuitions in the 1970s to teach himself the zither, kalimba, keyboards and percussion — to become one of the genre's most unique and original artists — and did it all getting by as a street musician in New York City, no less. Take an hour to explore a few of Laraaji's rare and unknown tapes and the recently discovered public access television show Celestrana with Numero Group A&R rep and producer Douglas Mcgowan.
