Jazz is just one aspect of a nicely unusual gathering of three great West African musicians. Djeli Moussa Diawara is a brilliant player of the Kora {African harp} and a fine singer.

Abdoulaye Diabate is a classically trained pianist who works regularly with Salif Keita & many other West African acts and whose various musical passions include jazz.

Moussa Cissoko is a master of various West African drums & drumming techniques.

Each was born into a musical family & all are very open to new musical adventures, whilst drawing strongly on traditional roots. The trio tackles one Charlie Parker classic, but most of its repertoire is directly African.

Based in Paris the band is easily available throughout the year for one-off shows and short tours.
