Kora Band @ Jimmy Maks Audio!

Posted on | October 26, 2009 | No Comments

As promised, I’ve posted the audio from our recent Jimmy Maks gig with the Kora Band.  We really enjoyed this show and are happy to share it with you.  It features many of the songs on our album in newer versions as well as our new arrangement of Mamadou Bitiki-Kaira, and Kane’s excellent solo kora piece, Mali Sadjo.  It also features special guest Reed Wallsmith of the Blue Cranes, who played a great opening set, sitting in on “Bina Na Ngai Na Respect.”

The show is downloadable for free, but if you enjoy it and want to / are able to contribute to the band, we’d greatly appreciate it – you can set your own price when you click on the download link, or type “0″ to download it for free.  You can also stream the whole thing right here, or on the BandCamp site (click on the album cover to get there).  Enjoy!
