Two meta-musical paths crossed when the London based musician Justin Adams went to Mali. There he made the connection between the Arabic music that surrounded his youth (he lived in Jordan, Lebanon and Egypt) and the Blues, Reggae, and Rock, all with origins in Africa. Suddenly, he knew why some music swings. After years of performing with Jah Wobble, Sinead O’Connor, Natacha Atlas, Brian Eno, Peter Gabriel, Billy Bragg and Robert Plant, Justin Adams finally released his first solo album.

Adams said of Desert Road : “After 20 years of recording music with various groups, singers and players I finally put out my own album. Six tracks were written and recorded at my flat in London in a two week period shortly after I had got back from an inspiring trip to Bamako, Mali. I then trawled through piles of musical sketches that I had been making over the past five years and found a series of pieces that seemed to make a coherent whole."
