The Good Ones
RWANDA, You Should Be Loved

The Good Ones’ renown is evidenced by the stellar musicians who collaborated with them on their new album: Wilco’s Nels Cline, TV On The Radio’s Tunde Adebimpe, Sleater-Kinney’s Corin Tucker, My Bloody Valentine’s Kevin Shields, and Fugazi’s Joe Lally. In 2009, Grammy-winning producer Ian Brennan (Tinariwen, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott) traveled to Rwanda in search of local music with his Italian-Rwandan wife, filmmaker and photographer, Marilena Delli. After two weeks of crisscrossing the country and listening to countless artists, they met The Good Ones, who formed the band as a healing process after the Rwandan genocide, which marks its 25th anniversary in 2019.
