Composer/guitarist Dave Flynn's seventh weekly update as dlr Musician-in-Residence.
This week Dave chats about the huge variety of guitar styles heard across the African continent as well as the many musicians who have influenced him along the way.
Dave's Guitar Heroes Playlist and blog, "African Guitar Genius" feature some of his favourite African guitarists along with some of his favourite pieces.
"If your knowledge of the music of Africa begins and ends with Paul Simon's Graceland album, this blog post may open your ears to some amazing new music!" Dave Flynn
Dave Flynn's Residency will culminate on Thursday 30 July at 7pm with the online premiere of the new work Dún Laoghaire Guitars created during the Residency.
The dlr Musician-in-Residence scheme is jointly funded by Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council and the Arts Council and managed by Music Network.
