Stony Plain Records announces an October 26 release date for Grammy-nominated roots music troubadour Eric Bibb's new 2-CD set, Global Griot ("GREE-O"). Recorded in Sweden, Canada and several other studios around the world in late 2017, Global Griot features special guest appearances by World Music star Habib Koité, with whom Eric recorded the acclaimed Brothers in Bamako album in 2012, as well as acclaimed West African musician Solo Cissokho, a master of the kora, the 22-stringed harp creating cascades of notes and beautifully-addictive grooves. Eric's long-time friend and music compadre Harrison Kennedy is also a special guest, singing on "Brazos River Blues," "Black, Brown & White," "Listen for the Spirit" and "Spirit Day."
