This short piece brings back such a vivid memory of that night. Catrin Finch and Seckou Keita's SOAR winning Best Fusion Album at the Songlines Music Awards 2019 was so well-deserved—their collaboration on the harp and kora is a beautiful testament to how music transcends borders. The ceremony at EartH Hall, Hackney, hosted by Cerys Matthews, with performances from Mariza, Fatoumata Diawara, and others, must have been an unforgettable celebration of global sounds. It's always inspiring to see artists from different traditions come together and create something truly new.

There's something transcendent about musical collaborations that bridge continents — Catrin Finch's harp and Seckou Keita's kora create a soundscape that feels both ancient and utterly fresh 🎵🌍 Their album SOAR winning the Songlines Best Fusion Award is no surprise, and their live performance at the ceremony must have been breathtaking.

Best Fusion Album for SOAR feels well earned, and 30 November should be a memorable night for the pair. Having Cerys Matthews present at EartH Hall is a nice touch, and a bill that also features Mariza and Fatoumata Diawara is seriously strong. SOAR has quietly become my go-to record for long evenings of Clicker Games, so this recognition is genuinely welcome news.
