(http://brownswoodrecordings.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/Obenewa-e1306424661144.jpg)Obenewa (http://www.obenewa.com) has been a recent discovery for us. Blown away by the tracks on her debut EP, we invited the West London based singer songwriter to make the trek out East (well... Old Street) to perform at our Record Store Day shindig in April. She came... and she killed it. Here are some words and music with Gilles about her aforementioned wonderful EP [iTunes (http://itunes.apple.com/gb/artist/obenewa/id315996107)]; the artists that have inspired her; and her collaborations with the legendary Dego (4hero/2000Black).You can download the podcast HERE (http://media.blubrry.com/gillespeterson/content.blubrry.com/gillespeterson/87_Gilles_with_Obenewa.mp3) [right-click-and-save on a PC // ctrl+click on a Mac]… or subscribe to Gilles’ podcasts via iTunes (http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/gilles-peterson/id254695278)
