Of all the artists I mined from that issue of Rolling Stone, the most compelling is blues musician Bombino.
Hailing from Niger, the 33-year-old grew up amid socio-political turmoil before traveling to the U.S. in 2006 and catching the attention of bands like The Rolling Stones.
He has released two albums over the past three years, the latest (Nomad) recorded with Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys.
