The label’s prestigious roster includes the Grammy-winning Buena Vista Social Club and associated solo artists (including Ibrahim Ferrer, Rubén González, Omara Portuondo and Orlando ‘Cachaíto’ López), Malian blues pioneer and Grammy-winner Ali Farka Touré, Malian divas and social activists Oumou Sangaré and Fatoumata Diawara, master kora player Toumani Diabaté, the illustrious Orchestra Baobab, musical iconoclast Cheikh Lô, and Fela Kuti’s legendary drummer and co-creator of Afrobeat Tony Allen. 
 
With reissues and brand new releases coming soon, World Circuit continues to bring diverse, genre-defying music to a wider audience.

Venture into the insane world of the one and only Pablo Francisco. When Pablo Francisco hits the stage, he immediately brings his audiences to their feet with boisterous laughter and applause. He weaves together his arsenal of characters, spontaneous outbursts, and clever insights to create a stand-up show that more resembles an hour-long comedic jazz riff.

Dave Banks is a middle-class, middle-aged, terminally dissatisfied moaning minnie who identifies strongly with Uncle Vanya.

Unlike Uncle Vanya, however, he does enjoy writing songs. 

He has in the past formed slightly less than 50% of the remarkable lo-fi, shock-folk duo 'The Sedatives' (https://the-sedatives.bandcamp.com). In prehistory, he has also been a member of 'The Groundwater Boys' and 'Jefferson Volkswagen'.

He now writes and performs with a variety of collaborators, especially the excellent Mr Rob Dean, Mr David Ian Jonesm Nr John Belli and Ms Louise Sweeney as "Me and Mr Jones" (https://meandmrj.wixsite.com/meandmrjones). 

He also plays and sings with Kev McInally as 'Poke O'Swedgers' (https://soundcloud.com/user-413397786)

Inspirations? He gets a kick out of confrontational music - Bertolt Brecht/Kurt Weill, Eels, Pulp - leavened with a helping of comedy - Jake Thackeray, Graham Fellows or John Otway. In his mellower moments he has been found secretively listening to his collection of Joni Mitchell, Martin Simpson, Kathryn Williams and Chris Wood cds.
