BAMBA WASSOULOU GROOVE
Additional Info:
Doors @ 7pm | Show @ 8pmBamba Wassoulou Groove, a powerful collective of five musicians, knows the undeniable power of Malian guitars. Their hypnotic, spiraling rhythms effortlessly transport listeners to the vibrant streets and red earth of Mali.Founded in Bamako in 2013 by the late Bamba Dembele-percussionist and co-founder of the iconic Super Djata Band-Bamba Wassoulou Groove is rooted in the rich legacy of Malian music. Dembele, alongside Zani Diabate, the funkiest and most eccentric guitarist in post-independence Mali, helped define the sound of the Super Djata Band. The band, alongside the Ambassadors of Salif Keita and the Super Rail Band, became a force to be reckoned with in the late '70s and '80s, igniting dancefloors and captivating young audiences with their infectious grooves.However, following the tragic deaths of Diabate and other members, the Super Djata Band disbanded, marking the end of an era in Mali's music history. With Bamba Wassoulou Groove, a new generation of talented musicians has risen to carry the torch. The band fuses the traditional with the modern, breathing new life into a genre that remains as potent and original as ever. By blending timeless Bambara classics with fresh compositions, the band ignites the stage with a powerful energy, captivating audiences worldwide.Their music, anchored by psychedelic bluesy electric guitars, intricate solos, and soulful vocals, is a force that propels Mali's musical legacy into the future. Bamba Wassoulou Groove's live performances are nothing short of electrifying, resonating deeply with fans while pushing the boundaries of contemporary Malian music."The dance-trance guitars of Mali's Bamba Wassoulou Groove turned the Siam Tent into a maelstrom of flying festival trousers and hipster beards."- The Times"Bamba Wassoulou Groove proved that Malian guitars truly speak to the sun. Percussion, drums, and vocals elevate the psychedelic, soaring tangle of sounds that flow from the guitarists at the front of the stage."- Clash MusicNotes on Seating:Open seating, may be limited or standing room only. First come, first seated. Open dance floor may obscure sightlines.
