Caliente Guitar Trio as recorded by community station, Radio Adelaide, as part of 2011's WOMADelaide festival.
The mysterious afro-soul of The Shaolin Afronauts first echoed across the dance floors of Australia in late early 2008. Heavily inspired by the sounds of 1970’s West Africa, Ethiopia and the pioneering avant-garde jazz artists of the same period the Shaolin Afronauts draw on the this highly innovative and sometimes volatile era in music, using it as inspiration to create music with the same fire and intensity. Their spirited performances have fast gained a reputation as some of the most exciting live shows around.
A passion for Latin music led notable Adelaide guitarists Alain Valodze, Mike Bevan and Dylan Woolcock to their collaboration as Caliente. Their music mixes intricate arrangements of Brazilian guitar music with choro, a precursor to samba.
WOMADelaide features performances and workshops on seven stages by the world's best musicians, dancers and DJs, alongside street theatre artists and visual artists, the popular Taste the World cooking program, Artists in Conversations sessions and an All-Star Gala finale.
