Aba Diop, Noumoucounda Cissoko and Jason Hosier are a power trio transmitting a wholly new genre of West African sabar fusion. Interweaving the propulsive rhythms of Diop’s sabar drum percussion with the dulcet tones of Cissoko’s kora, the fluidity of Hosier’s jazzy, meditative guitar riffs, and vocals that integrate the griot storytelling traditions from thousands of years, the trio’s unique instrumentation creates a conversation between tradition and modernity, between east and west, between acoustic and electric.
