DIsabled Congolese Musicians

http://www.nowpublic.com/culture/disabled-congolese-musicians-become-world-hit

What an amazing, dedicated group of Musicians!

From the website:
A group of Congolese musicians is using music to overcome obstacles – both economic and social – that come with being disabled in a poor country. Called Staff Benda Bilili, they are on course to be a global sensation and are looking forward to their first European tour. A remarkable achievement for anyone from a war-torn country, let alone for musicians who live as paraplegics in the slums of the Democratic Republic of Congo’s capital, Kinshasa.
