the band i found is the refugee allstars. they're a group of musicians who lived for over 6 years in a refugee camp in guinea, west africa. instead of giving up hope - they gave hope to their fellow refugees through their music. they sing songs about injustice, war, greed and they sing for peace in their home country of sierra leone.their story is a universal one, about human suffering, about forgiveness, love, hope and home. check out their main web site here and their myspace here.

enjoy and go support my girl, mandie!
