Damba, Mah
Taabolo Koura
This new record deepens the musical partnership with guitarist and arranger Thierry Fournel, who has worked alongside the Damba family for twenty years. Together they have built something intimate and unhurried - an acoustic architecture of guitar, djeli ngoni, accordion, calebasse, and guembri that serves the voice rather than decorating it. Mah Dambas voice - deep, warm, and now carrying the grain of six decades - remains the centre of gravity on every track.
