Sona Jobarteh & Taj Mahal – 9 Mar 2024
Check out this event by our friends at Koerner Hall:
Africa’s first female griot kora player makes her Koerner Hall debut with one of her mentors, blues legend Taj Mahal. With her shimmering 21-string kora melodies and distinctive voice, Sona Jobarteh is « a griot for a new generation of West Africans, » (BBC) who « blends traditional music, blues, and Afropop to impressive effect » (The Guardian). Grammy Award-winning multi-instrumentalist Taj Mahal is a legendary figure in the blues and roots music and a hero to rock-and-roll icons such as Eric Clapton and the Rolling Stones.
