Iron Blossom 2024

We’re still basking in the glow of a fantastic weekend at Iron Blossom Music Festival—full of great music and wonderful people. From meet and greets with Victoria Canal and Say She She, to chasing down every person in tie dye who might want to join us at Dead Air IV, we want to give a huge shoutout to our volunteers and staff who made the weekend extra special!

Encore: Mustafa on World Cafe

To celebrate the release of his new album, Dunya, World Cafe is revisiting a 2021 conversation with Mustafa. Mustafa is a poet and musician who was raised in Toronto’s Regent Park housing project in a conservative Muslim family. He wasn’t exposed to a lot of music until a vocal teacher introduced him to Joni Mitchell & Prince. Mustafa performs songs from his album, When Smoke Rises, on the next World Cafe.
