My favorite columns to write are the ones that hopscotch around the world—each album acting like a pin on a map, offering an invitation for discovery. For May’s column, we bounce from Stockholm, Sweden to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; from Lisbon, Portugal to Ghent, Belgium. We explore the walking paths of Central Park in New York City and follow a trail from Mexico City to Montreal, with stops in Chicago, London, and Korea. Melbourne is just one of the Australian stops, and Leipzig is just one of the German stops. We also bop back and forth between Bolivia and Puerto Rico. And that’s just some of the areas of the map waiting to be explored this month. Let’s begin.
