Featuring live performances from the inventive and soulful Cuban 7-piece ASERE; a specially commissioned "soundscape" from David Lowe of DREAMCATCHER; traditional and soulful Senegalese vocals from LAYE SOW; award-winning acoustic-roots from SHOW OF HANDS; the beautiful, emotive voice of Peru's SUSANA BACA and a fusion of hip-hop, Latin, jazz, ska and reggae from one of Australia's funkiest bands THE CAT EMPIRE.

There will be DJ sets from BBC London 94.9FM and World Service DJ CHARLIE GILLETT who will be playing some of his favourite tunes from around the world on the Moroccan Terrace, and the DREADZONE SOUND SYSTEM will be spinning their 21st century dub in the Link Building.
