The legendary Malian singer/guitarist returns with his most personal and immersive album to date. Intimately recorded with a small band, 'Binga' dives deep into Samba's Songhoy roots. During the 15th and 16th centuries the Songhoy people ruled the largest empire in Africa. It stretched across the entire western Sahel, famed for the glory that was Timbuktu, the city of gold, known across the world as a centre of culture and learning. Binga is the region that encompasses the vast space below the Saharan desert in Mali. This is where guitarist and singer Samba Toure grew up, and it still owns his heart. Moody Sahelian atmospheres.
