View From The Desert

Festival of the Desert by bbcworldservice.

I’ve been talking a lot about Mali’s Festival Au Desert, which The Sway Machinery just performed at.  For some reason, I’m just totally captivated by the idea of a music festival right in the middle of the desert sand dunes.  When I found BBC World Service’ gallery of photos from the festival, I knew I had to share some of them here:
