Gigi
Gigi Shibabaw was raised in the Ethiopian countryside, surrounded by music. After moving to Addis-Abbeba, opportunities quickly emerged for her, and at the age of 24, she landed in San Francisco, where she began releasing music for the Ethiopian expatriate community, and attracted the attention of Chris Blackwell. Three years later, she's getting world music's most royal treatment with a high-concept release on one of the genre's most ambitious labels.

For her major label debut, Ethiopian singer Gigi has found the ideal sonic collaborator in producer Bill Laswell. He has provided a solid foundation for her compositions and airy voice, grounding them with gospel organ, an elastic rhythm section, and contributions from some top jazz names, including Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, and Pharaoh Sanders.
