Samba Touré is considered to be one of the best guitarists from Mali. He grew up in the Tomboctou region, and continues the musical legacy of the late Ali Farka Touré, the ‘king of desert blues’.
Samba Touré released his first record in 2008, but his international breakthrough came in 2013, when he released the highly acclaimed cd Albala on Glitterbeat. On this same label he also released his other records: Gandadiko (2015), Wande (2018) and Binga (2021).
Samba Touré creates a harmonious blend of West African river blues, traditional Songhai themes and western elements. Sometimes with a lovely mellow sway, at other times with a more powerful bluesrock feel, but always infectious.
