In the considerably more humble surroundings of 27 huts, the Africa Express musicians gathered. (…) He rolls up his right sleeve to show me evidence of the trip being a resounding success — a simple tattoo on his inner arm depicting his hut, No2 of the 27. “A lot of us have these slightly silly tattoos because it had gone so well,” he says. “At the end, we did a gig at a Johannesburg nightclub and this tattooist was there, a friend of one of the artists.” – The Sun, 12 July 2019

Damon Albarn on the musicians that took part in the recordings of EGOLI
On Moonchild Sanelly: She’s a force of nature with a distinctive voice and she’s very good at improvising. She got herself into pretty much every hut over the five days. I get on with her because she has genuine enthusiasm and great instincts for making music collectively. There’s no shyness there and if you open yourself to music, you will make music. Simple.
On Sibot: He’s fantastic, a lynchpin for the whole thing. With these records, what you put in is very apparent at the end of the week.
On Mahotella Queens: I always tend to work with the older artists. Just because I have a lot of experience and I love the challenge. When she [Hilda Tloubatla] arrived, I was about an hour late getting out of my hut that morning. She was not impressed and gave me a proper telling off. Much chastened, I offered an apology. Thankfully, she accepted it.
On Gruff Rhys: I love Gruff . . . one of my contemporaries I really respect.
On Giorgia: Georgia was an ideal person to come on one of these trips. She’s really open, very musical and just wants to make music with people. And if you’re like that, this environment is just f***ing brilliant for you. via The Sun, 12 July 2019
