about

Recorded at Kobokoto Lodge, Sanyang, The Gambia, Nov 2014, mixed and mastered in England in early 2015 by Martin Messent. Co-produced by Chris Sylla and Martin Messent. A mixture of traditional West African instruments skillfully blended for a unique sound. Lyrics are in Susu, one of the more common Guinean languages, and reflect on the reality of the hardness of West African life while reminding us that we are all connected. Joyous and uplifting music, it'll have you dancing in your kitchen or tapping on the steering wheel of you car!
