Comment by Taiwo Heard on May 29, 2012 at 10:52pm: Hey! I played the Afropunk festival back in 2008 in a band called Swivel. It was me and my buddy Eddie Robinson. I'm putting out a solo album this summer (much more rock oriented) and I have a Kickstarter page to raise mixing funds. I've only got 6 days left, so even a tweet might help me out a lot. If you could link to my page on the site.... all the better! SO here it it:
