This week on The Edit, we spoke with Pacific Standard Editorial Assistant Jack Denton about his recent PSmag.com story “Hailu Mergia’s Great Re-Appearing Act”. Mergia was recently rediscovered by a record label and made his return to the music industry. During this episode Denton outlines a brief history of Ethiopian music, talks about what attracted him to this story in the first place, and describes the unique character of Hailu Mergia.
