From roots and reggae to swirling klezmer, and from Balkan classical music to the bright and vibrant sounds of Indian folk, a wide variety of world music groups are heading to Peel later this year.

Last week, the organisers of the Our Island: Our World festival announced that they are still going ahead as planned with the vibrant celebration of world music, arts and cultures. It is set to take place at the Peel Centenary Centre between Wednesday, September 9 and Saturday, September 12.

The legendary UK reggae band Talisman and the Klezmer and gypsy-fusion group She’Koyokh all feature on the Friday night.

Talisman formed in Bristol during the late 70s and spear-headed the UK roots and reggae scene, supporting groups such as the Clash and Burning Spear, as well as the Rolling Stones.
