Juno award-winning, Eritrian krar player, Daniel Nebiat joins
John to talk about his journey playing the krar. From growing up in
the midst of a war for independence to working with African
legends, Daniel Nebiat shares the ways he had to persevere, adapt,
and innovate to continue pursuing his passion for music. Currently
based in Toronto, he is a founding member of the Okavango African
Orchestra, where he and African musicians from six other countries
create original music for traditional instruments that have
historically had little or no interaction. Whether he’s talking
about krar, family, or food, “Toronto’s Krar Star” does not
disappoint!
