Baka Beyond were originally inspired by Martin Cradick & Su Hart's visits to the Baka Forest Pygmies in Cameroon. This collaboration helped define the term “world music” and pushed Baka Beyond into worldwide recognition. From these beginnings, based on live jams recorded while living with the Baka Pygmies in the rainforests, Baka Beyond has evolved into a multicultural, dynamic live stage show. The rhythms and melodies of the African players meet with the Celtic traditions, ancient and modern, of the European musicians.

Martin says of ‘Rhythm Tree’: "This is the culmination of over 10 years of work for me. It is where the music of the Baka and of Baka Beyond comes back together. ... The Baka musicians have been developing their songs using the guitars that we’ve taken to them, and on ‘Rhythm Tree’ we have been able to bring all these elements together.
