Santi White, of Santogold fame.

Next stop: the blogosphere.

Backbeat Online brings you Q&As with a pair of intriguing acts: Santi White, also known as Santogold, who’s among the most buzzed-about performers currently treading Terra Firma, and Georg Holm of the fascinating Icelandic band Sigur Ros. Additionally, Dave Herrera passes along the latest information about scene veteran Sharon Rawles, who continues to struggle with health issues.
