This CD presents songs from Palestine, Morocco, Syria, Kashmir, Cyprus and Mexico, where walls within their borders or between them and richer countries separate neighbours. This CD features singers, who themselves are unable to meet each other because of these walls of separation, performing together with American and European artists presenting their interpretations in English of the original songs. Natacha Atlas (UK/Egypt), Tom Russell (USA), Mimi Goese (USA), Sarah Jane Morris (UK), Eva Dahlgren (Sweden) and Morten Harket (Norway) are among the singers from Western countries performing together with Rim Banna (Palestine), Mahmoud Gania (Morocco), Abdul Rashid Farash (Kashmir), Esmaeel Mdah (Syria), Michael Tterlikkas (Cyprus) and others from "wall-infested" countries.
