Manu Chao (France)
Manu Chao links on Radio 3: Awards for World Music 2002 profile & interview
nominated by:
Sharon Fryer, King's Lynn:
'An established artist who has a style all his own. Those who were fortunate enough to see his performance at Glastonbury immediately after Brazil won the cup must have experienced the most energetic and enlivening gig of their life.'
Andrew Thomas, London:
'Having only just discovered the incredibly eclectic sound of Chao, I was astonished how big he was around the world, and practically unheard of here. The wonderful thing about his music is his ability to take sounds from around the world, ska, Latin, good old rock 'n roll, and very mush create his own music. The only person with a similar approach to his work was Joe Strummer!'
Gary Pitt, Portsmouth:
'He made Glasto 2002 special for me. He has humour, playful tunes with lyrics and a sound that encapsulates all the best in good music.'
