Boubacar Traoré - Hona

From his new album "M'Balimaou" (Brothers), the splendid blues "Hona" - a collection of images taken in Bamako while Boubacar was recording the album together with Vincent Bûcher (harmonica, here on this song), and Ballaké Sissoko or Christian Mousset (both producing the album and appearing in the video).

Far too few people outside of Africa get to hear the music of Boubacar Traore in their daily lives, why should this be? He's clearly a musician/song writer of the highest order and deserves a huge worldwide audience.

The Blues’ journey from Africa to America is well documented. Back in the late ‘90s Martin Scorsese dedicated the
complete first episode of his documentary, The Blues, to its African roots. Corey Harris, a modern African American
blues man, narrated. It was eye and ear opening to hear the sounds of traditional African music in relation to what we
call The Blues. It IS The Blues, was, and ever shall be.

Still performing at 81, he fills the room with his voice, spirit and energy. We love you Boubacar! 🙏
