The Malian diva Rokia Koné and her acoustic trio featuring virtuoso guitarist Salif Koné and percussionist Yahael Camaro are touring Europe this autumn with Rokia’s new album, to be released on Real World Records in September.
Mali’s most beloved and dynamic artist is constantly evolving. Her voice soars – pure, clear, and true – above the infectious Mande guitar grooves and traditional rhythms, and her performances are invariably captivating, as Koné runs the gamut of emotion from joy to despair, fury to tenderness, wielding that astounding voice with grace and power.
