Griot singer, guitarist, songwriter and storyteller
Boubacar Diabate from Bamako, Mali
comes from the Mandinka lineage and has combined traditional rhythms with
modern influences to create his own style of contemporary Malian Griot
music, singing and playing guitar with his group, Samba Lolo. Singing in
Bambara, they create a performance that spans the full spectrum of
Traditional to Contemporary Malian music from West Africa. Bouba sings of a
common shared experience of love, life and humanity, giving all an
opportunity to hear the age-old West African tradition of Griot storytelling
through song. Please visit http://www.sambalolo.com for more information
about Boubacar or Samba Lolo.

Opening for Samba Lolo is Toussaint and the China Band. Originally formed to
travel to Shanghai and fill in a friend's gig, this all star reggae band was
so wildly popular here in the Boston area that it adopted a name and stayed
together! Please visit http://www.toussaintandthechinaband.com for more
