Listen to Asheba, a musical storyteller who specializes in calypso, the musical and folkloric oral tradition of Trinidad, Asheba’s homeland. Stories of hope and happiness are the focus of his songs, which range from original lullabies to fast tempo tunes to remakes of classics. Because his music is for all ages, abilities and backgrounds, you’ll find children and parents alike joyfully singing, clapping and dancing along to it.
