Sissoko, Baba

Three Gees

Griots are traditional West-African musicians who tell stories and legends, pass on history to next generations, and doing so accompany themselves on instruments. Indeed, the blues started with the griots, not in the Mississippi delta! Baba Sissoko is from Mali and he is the last undisputed griot alive. His voice evokes the lost vibe of the deepest and wildest side of West Africa; a magic land that he has largely crossed since his childhood singing and playing with his legendary grandfather, Djeli Baba Sissoko. With the help of the soulful voices of Djeli Mah Damba Koroba and Djana Sissoko, respectively his mother and his young daughter, he recorded 'Three Gees'. They are the voices of the past, the present and the future, living in the twilight zone where the Malian roots blooms into a new sound of hope and happiness.
