Reg Meuross & Suntou Susso: Stolen from God

Acclaimed songwriter and storyteller Reg Meuross tackles the history of England’s involvement in the transatlantic slave trade, unearthing both incredible tales and uncomfortable truths of a history which needs to be told.

Featuring the sparkling playing of kora master Suntou Susso, these stories are brought to life in a stunning folk song cycle, alongside narration on the background to each song.

"Reg Meuross has written a masterpiece and the musicians working with him on this are simply amazing." Mike Harding

"If ever there was evidence that music can be used to speak truth to power, then this album will in time sit as testament to that fact. From a British man of colour, a personal thanks must go to Reg Meuross and his team for taking on this subject matter." Ifi Umoren – FATEA
