The south-eastern Turkish city of Gaziantep, less than an hour’s drive from the Syrian border, is a destination for spies, foreign-aid workers, Isis sleeper cells – and refugees. Since the crisis in Syria erupted in March 2011, one in ten of the country’s population has been killed or injured. The AlSeeraj Center run by Noor Shami provide schooling for Syrian children who have suffered fatal losses in the war.

The guitar slinger has been a fixture on the music scene in downtown New Orleans since the `80s. Over the years he has solidified his status as a kind of New Orleans institution with his whiskey-throated voice and curious ability to find inspiration in the degenerate. He even appeared three times as himself in the HBO series Treme.
