Album: A Change for the Dreamlike. A Midwesterner with an Eritrean background, Hermon Mehari is an amalgamation of his high-flying globetrotting experiences and the down-home common sense of his upbringing in Jefferson City, Missouri. His music, despite the pandemic and personal loss, has continued to flourish, and his new album explores Eritrean influences. In this episode, David and Derek sit down with Hermon to speak about roots, identity, the Parisian scene and more.
