Gigi resurfaces in Germany


The celebrated Ethiopian singer Ejigayehu (Gigi) Shibabaw has been away from the limelight for a couple of years. But recently, she has resurfaced in festival in Germany.
A web report has it that Gigi and her producer and bassist husband Bill Laswell have performed at Krems festival on July 27 in Germany.
Looking at the picture posted on the German web, Gigi had a slightly different look with relaxed dress, tight and unfasten shirt and a little extra weight.
Musically speaking, it has been a successful come-back. The web has a positive review of her and her husbands’ performance.
The New York based couple’s music has been a blend of dub, reggae, funk and traditional Ethiopian music, reported the web.
Gigi has been hugely popular at home and abroad for her hits like ‘Gud Fela’ and ‘Balewashintu’.

So nice to discover somebody with a few original thoughts
on this issue. Seriously.. many thanks for starting this up.
This site is one thing that is required on the internet, someone with a little originality!

Thank you
