About this event

Legendary Malian singer, composer and guitarist, and the son of Malian musician Ali Farka Touré

Vieux Farka Touré returns to the UK to make the UK debut of his traditional acoustic quartet. He?ll bring his own compositions to the stage as well as his father?s well loved classics.

Vieux Farka Touré has firmly cemented his name and star power alongside his esteemed father Ali Farka Touré, both in songwriting and masterful guitarwork: oscillating artfully between Malian Folk, with the unique instrumentation and style of Songhai?s deep musical tradition, and the Desert Blues which first made the Farka Tour? name legend.

With six solo albums, including the critically acclaimed Mon Pays, Farka Touré’s recent dual-release of Ali,a collaboration with Khruangbin – and Les Racines, a mature, traditionalists record said to be outstanding by The Guardian has propelled him to fame.
