Marked by the ancestral culture of the Mandingo hunters, Abou Diarra is a Malian n'goni (Malian harp guitar) player with an atypical background. Trained by a virtuoso and blind master, he has criss-crossed the roads of Abidjan-Bamako-Conakry on foot for several months, accompanied by his only instrument. Crossing the most remote villages of West Africa as well as modern megalopolises, he drew from traditional sounds and contemporary urban music. His music speaks of travel. The concert was filmed at the New Morning, a cult jazz concert hall in Paris. (Bass – Jean-Sebastien Masanet; Drums – Yannick Arnaud Kouassi; Electric Guitar – Daouda Dembele; Guitar, Keyboards – Moussa Koita; Ngoni, Lead Vocals – Abou Diarra)
