Boubacar Traoré

Produced by Ballake Sissoko and Christian Mousset and recorded at the Bogolan studios in Bamako, Mbalimaou is a new milestone in the work of Boubacar Traore. In his homeland Mali he is called the “King of the African blues”. His inimitable guitar style, his bluesy distinctive voice, and the poetry that pervades his songs, have all matured over the years and are the ingredients that make him one of the great musicians of our time. Infused with nostalgia and melancholy, Mbalimaou is a record of great depth, one of the finest in this unique artist's long career.
