I have great love for Mamadou and his amazing music!

[@sintiendomevivo]

Bands like this is why I've been following KEXP for at least 7 years now 👏

[@hitmewiththedigits]

Yeah I've never lived there, in fact I live in a different *country*, and kexp stands out.

[@hitmewiththedigits]

qualifier: this particular live performance isn't really working on my speakers. Some things just don't seem to work yet electric.

[@hitmewiththedigits]

Also: wathc the interview at the end. This guy's dad is a genius.

[@hitmewiththedigits]

What better way to have a kid who can play balafon than to have 45 kids and make them all study the balafon?

[@SoulTerra]

I agree, I like these bands from the far corners of the earth with really original sounds and instruments.

[@kenma6224]

great music, and more importantly, great human beings, coming from the land of upright people, indeed.
