And now, in concert…CARABAO!
This season in our online classes we’ll appreciate a wide range of East and Southeast Asian folk songs, from simple traditional children’s rhymes that resonate in rural areas to deeper, “dangerous” anti-authoritarian activist anthems. The band Carabao, from Thailand, is an example of a group that lives for the latter, blending acoustic folk — specifically Thai political “phleng peua chiwit” folk music — with Western rock. In this video enjoy the band, live — big drum beats, raging guitar solos, ubiquitous bandanas and all.
We are revising the AllAroundThisWorld.com site — the information you’re seeking may still be here, but a lot of links are broken and details may be out of date. We are currently using a new (better!) site — ExploreEverywhere.com — to tell you all about our class offerings, our “pen pal” program and how to become one of our teachers, and will eventually be moving all the goodies from here over to there. So, GO TO THE NEW SITE!
