Some of you probably know this song, but for those who don’t – here it is. It’s… It’s really good.
The song’s name is “La Fête au Village” and it is a part of album (produced by Manu Chao) – “Dimanche A Bamako” (2005).
Authors are very interesting ones. Amadou and Mariam are a musical duo from Mali. They are both blind and they are married.
The duo produces music that mixes traditional Mali sound with rock guitars, Syrian violins, Cuban trumpets, Egyptian ney, Colombian trombones, Indian tablas and Dogon percussion. All these elements put together have been referred to as “Afro-blues” (copied from Wikipedia).
Let me know what you think about it.
