Ester Rada: Could It Be + Life Happens
28-year-old Ethiopian-Israeli singer-songwriter Ester Rada is gaining legions of new fans by the minute; performances this year at SXSW and Glastonbury no doubt helped get the word out.
Produced and arranged by SaBBo & Kuti , her outstanding four-track EP 'Life Happens' was released on November 1 of last year; a full-length debut album is in the works.
