UKTCF are holding their annual fund raiser at MTV Studios. This year it will be an evening of music with Demachena performing live. Great music, Thai food, drinks and also allowing us to update the guests on the work UKTCF does supporting HIV / AIDS orphans in the North of Thailand.

Demachena is a young trio of musicians who have produced a distinctive blend of African, Arabic and Latin music while incorporating a host of other unique styles to produce a truly intriguing concoction of “world music”.

The name of the group means “black and white” a name derived from the Shona people whose Mbira tradition has been a major influence on the bands own music and performance style. Having also spent significant periods in the Sahara desert, Mali and India-filming documentaries on regional culture and traditional music-the exquisite influences from these regions are evident in their music.

It will be a great night and I hope you can all make it. Tickets cost £15 with all proceeds raised going to the work of UKTCF. Check out our website www.uktcf.org Also have a listen to Demachena on their Myspace page
