BECKY WILSON & NANO S. - KASMARAN

In the early 90's Becky Wislon from Chicago was living with her husband Bruce in Bandung, studying Indonesian language at the Unpad University. Turned out she was really good at singing Sundanese songs. They got her together with the great Nano S. and they made this pop Sunda album.... I think she made another cassette too, never seen it though.... GET IT HERE Enjoy!

  1. Hi Henk,

    Becky was featured on 3 Sundanese cassttes: Kasamaran, Pada Pada Suka, "and a Christian Album where she was the highlighted singer for a Sunda Idol. The three winners got their songs on the album with my mom," plus "She made 10 music videos in her singing career" in addition to singing many weddings. It's outlined in her son's blog: http://laxginger.blogspot.com/2013/12/www.wheaton.eduAdmissions-and-AidUndergradMeet-and-Contact-UsMeet-Your-CounselorBecky-Wilson.html

  2. BTW, I corresponded with Becky about 20 years ago after she had returned to the USA. She kindly mailed me dubs of some of her tracks. More recently, Becky's been featured in two videos on the Sanggar Mekar Asih label. Here's one uploaded to YouTube April 2019: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9spm8beq8s
