arts24 © FRANCE 24

Uuhai are bringing to the world their blend of traditional Mongolian folk with metal. Their music features the Morin Khuur, a traditional horse-headed violin with Khöömei singing, which is a form of throat singing listed by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage. Ahead of their Paris and Hellfest dates, their youngest member and bassist Anand Naranbaatar tells us more about their unique genre before the rest of Uuhai treat us to a wonderful performance in the FRANCE 24 studio. We also get to meet New York-based French Caribbean artist Adi Oasis.
