Music to my ears: Santogold



Club rotation and airplay in urban Afghanistan and downtown Beirut. Request lines of radio stations from Miami to Hanoi are receiving tons of calls from listeners eager to hear this new sound over their frequencies. Santogold (Santi White) has already been labeled as "the next M.I.A." She has been featured on a track on Mark Ronson's Grammy-winning album "Versions," opened for Bjork, and just recently finished touring with M.I.A.



Santogold is the first act of the century to boast a post-war following on the International Space Station Mir. Following a live performance broadcast from three thousand miles off the Cape of Good Hope last June, inmates at Leavenworth Penitentiary received Santogold with a celebratory confetti parade, just another first for the modern super group that knows no bound.



So what else is can we look forward to from this new up and coming artist, who's debut album just released in the US? Touring!!!
You can see her at Central Park's Summerstage July 22nd and Rock the Bells in NYC on July 27th
