about

Dedicated to a good friend, a champion of kindness, justice and compassion.
I find myself wanting more and more to explore the banjo and it’s roots in Africa. After discovering I have very distant ancestors from Mali I searched for examples of music from that region of Africa and found musicians like Andra Kouyate, Fatoumata Diawara, Kankou Kouyate and Cheick Tidiane Seck. Listening to the music of Mali felt like coming home. My first experience of hearing their music was like being hit on the head by a bolder and when I woke I felt much more free to experiment with the banjo and the music I play.
