In week three of our special Global Music Series, we welcome Nigerian-born artist John "Imoudu " Idinye. Imoudu grew up listening to musical giants like Fela Kuti, Micheal Jackson and Kanye West. These artists helped shape Imoudu's idea of what it means to make music. Imoudu focuses on multiple musical genres from hip-hop to pop to afro-beats and occasionally rock. Host Barb Walsh talks with Imoudu about the mix of these genres that have ultimately created his own musical identity.

The Global Music lineup for August 17 includes Eldin Husic, John "Imoudu " Idinye, and Andrew Kagumba Mark Lenini.

If you want to know more about these performers, join us Wednesday 17th at 7 pm at  Fortis Courtyard and Amphitheatre.
