Nakany Kante, born in Siguiri, Guinea Conakry, a border area with Mali from where great masters of Mandinka music have emerged. She grew up in this environment. In 2009 she moved to Barcelona and starts her musical career with traditional roots. Now she releases her third album 'De Conakry a Barcelone'. She took advantage of her stays in Guinea, recording the bulk of the guitars, basses, percussion, kora, and backing vocals in studios there, giving the record a different sound than her songs recorded in Barcelona. This third release is more mature than her previous work, 'Saramaya'(SLW 2) and 'Naka' (SLW 6), crossing genre lines with ease and flair. In addition to Mandingo pop, she experiments with disco, European pop, and the ballads from the streets of Conakry. |
