Last weekend I stumbled upon an unsigned band called Fernando's Kitchen, as three of its members were playing in Oxford's Bonn Square. Though I couldn't stay long, I loved what I heard, essentially a mediterranean fusion of styles including flamenco and arabic music (not that I'm very good at analysing this, but the oud is a giveaway):
Looked them up on MySpace and found this nice video with the complete band, also doing a street performance:
I'm a chemist turned biochemist turned science writer, covering everything from nano to astro via bio. Also trying to make sense of my life in writing about family history. Playing wrong notes on a variety of instruments. Current craze: repairing violins and learning to play them too.
