Hindi Zarah Delivering “Homeland” in April

ByMatthias Kirsch

Hindi ZarahI went to Cologne today which was my homeland in the late 80s/early 90s. And “Homeland” was the reason for my trip. It’s the title of the new album by Moroccan singer Hindi Zarah, which will be released on April 10th.

It’s an amazing collection of songs and the album will be reviewed on these pages around the release date together with excerpts from the interview. In the meantime, check back on her last album “Handmade” from 2010 or listen to her intoxicating duet with José James on “Sword & Gun” from José’s “No Beginning No End” album or pull out the Nina Simone tribute album which came out last year where she contributed her version of “Just Say I Love Him”.

ByMatthias Kirsch

There was a time period from the late 70s to the late 80 when looking at album credits was at least as important as the music of the main artist. Background vocalists were especially important to me when picking up records from formerly unknown artists. Paulette McWilliams was singing lead and background vocals on albums…
