Rob Baker is an ethnomusicologist who lived in West Africa for eight years. It is from this period of his life that he draws the majority of his inspiration for writing, and his books are broadly biographical, based upon his rich and varied experiences in Africa. Rob's first degree (Leeds University) was in music and French, and he holds a PGCE from Oxford University. In 2013, he gained an MPhil from Birmingham University, based upon research into the traditional music of Benin.
