Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars burst onto the world stage in 2006 with the help of a moving award-winning documentary that told the powerful and inspirational story of the group's formation in a West African refugee camp. Since then the group and their message of hope has been embraced by audiences around the world. They are one of Africa's top touring bands and their "can't help but dance" show has included performances at the Hollywood Bowl, Red Rocks, Bonnaroo, The Oprah Winfrey Show and much more. Their latest CD Radio Salone was produced by Ticklah (known for his work with Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings, Amy Winehouse and Antibalas). The album title references "Salone" - meaning "Sierra Leone" in the native language of Krio - in which the band sings (along with five other languages) on the new album. The radio theme represents the essential escape from the harsh reality of the refugee camps, where the radio brought news and music to people desperate for a link to the world beyond the camps. The BBC says "2012 marked the 10th anniversary of the end of the war, and this album makes it a happier anniversary."
