Welcome to the Artistic Director's Guide

The Artistic Director's Guide is our way of taking you "beyond the bio". Here you'll find audio and video clips, and I'll describe what I like about each artist and suggest why he or she is important to the scene. So dive in—use the menu options above to find an artist, and let's seek to answer "What's so good about...?"

What's so good about Angelique Kidjo?

Artist: 
Angelique Kidjo

There are a lot of female vocalists out there. A lot. Each year we're inundated with submissions from female vocalists looking for gigs. So, it’s always a treat when a vocalist sticks out for all of the right reasons – and Angelique Kidjo falls firmly into that category.
