Summary
The singer/songwriter, guitarist and Garifuna activist Aurelio Martinez first learned music at his mother's knee. At work-day's end, villagers returned home and gathered to hear paranda, the guitar-driven music of Garifuna troubadours who teased, taught, bemoaned and praised community life. Martinez joined in at a very early age. After spending time in politics, he decided to go back to music. His album is a swaying, bittersweet homage to his beloved home and people
