The unique sound of his music reflects his personal philosophy,influenced by the Sufi tradition which stresses the sacred nature of music itself, the enormous power contained within it, and the necessity for those who concern themselves with it to unreservedly and selflessly give themselves to it. This process results in an experience of music of a transcendental and spiritual nature, equally shared by musicians and audience alike.

This versatile quartet plays (in their own words) "a big assortment ofthings and all sorts of hoedown pan-celtic old-timey up-beat down-homemusic. All this combined with bizarre physical nonsense and clowningabout. And singing. And dancing. Sheer visualosity and laughableness,boundless energy, exuberant spectacles and beautiful music executedwith kindness. What could possibly go wrong?"

7) Yakande (Gambia/Guinea)

The name "Yakande" is a merger of Yakhouba Sissokho (a wizard of themystical kora from Gambia) and Kandet Dioubate (a bewitching Guineandiva with an enchanting voice). Their sizzling musical rapport andsensuous groove will get you swaying and gyrating in ecstasy.
