about

Defying all logic & commonsense, Cafe Nowhere 3 is in fact the third album in the Cafe Nowhere series.

Like the eclectic 'world folk' flavours of last year's Ramshackle Alchemy album, the Cafe Nowhere series brings together more recordings inspired by music traditions from around the world. The tracks have been selected from 21 different albums across my back catalogue of releases since 2005.

Converging together at the Cafe Nowhere, these recordings offer a colourful journey of exotic moods & sounds. Along the way you may hear elements of North African, South African, Middle Eastern / Moorish, Near Eastern, Hawaiian swing, Greek rembetika, Latin / Mexican / South American, Eastern European, Rom gypsy, Appalachian mountain music, medieval, Cuban, Balkan, tropicana, bluegrass, oldtime jazz or early blues.

It's been an extraordinarily rich experience delving into these musical traditions over many decades. I hope you enjoy the results of my delvings!
