Show Notes

Although he may be best-known in 2019 as an acclaimed visual artist, [Franklin Fernando](http://www.franklinfernando.com/) has a long history of carrying the torch for reggae music in Winnipeg as the frontman of [RasTamils](https://witchpolice.podiant.co/e/34d06a93cd0d22/) and as a solo artist. We talk about his musical history, his work as a painter, and about the new musical project – Stereo Tabu – he has on the horizon.
