Jazz All-Year Round presents

Mulatu Astatke

Mulatu Astatke is an Ethiopian musician and arranger best known as the father of Ethio-jazz. His albums focus primarily on instrumental music. His Western audience expanded even further when the 2005 Jim Jarmusch film Broken Flowers featured seven of Astatke’s songs. Some hip hop artists such as Nas, Damian Marley, Kanye West, Cut Chemist, and Knaan have also sampled Astatke’s songs extensively.
