Description
With the colourful music of Sako Wana's griot heritage, he invites various influences on to the same stage offering a fiery groove that takes the audience on a festive journey to West Africa. Mixing pulsating rhythms from traditional Mandinka instruments, such as the ngonie and the balafon, in perfect harmony with guitar, drums and bass, Sako Wana's vision of the world is offered in the Bwaba, Dioula and Moore languages. He advocates love, peace and solidarity for a more human world, a new way of living together.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
