Breakout Malian singer/songwriter Fatoumata Diawara (AKA Fatou) mixes jazz, pop, and funk along with her ancestral Wassoulou tradition. Fatou sings of love, politics, and empowerment with dedicate melodies and intricate guitar and drum arrangements. Malinese guitar virtuoso Vieux Farka Touré’s live show is a tour de force of dusty desert rock, amped-up blues, sinuous West African grooves, and the unstoppable charisma, heavens-searching vocals and agile melodies of Farka Touré.
