The Return of the Messenger
As one of the Sahel's most beloved artists and a de facto Malian ambassador for endangered instruments like the njurkel lute and njarka fiddle, Afel Bocoum prepares a new album, 'Harber', and comes to The Apex as part of rare UK tour.
Bocoum's new trio strips music to its core - voice, rhythm, and the spaces between.
Afel Bocoum
Singer, guitarist and composer from Mali whose songs, with their rolling melodies and rhythms, reflect the vast horizons, swirling clours and timelessness of the Niger river itself.
