Description
They were formed in Bamako, Mali, in 2014 by three renowned Malian music stars and social change activists, Mamani Keta, Oumou Sangar and Mariam Doumbia, and the collective has since expanded to involve many female artists from across Africa and the diaspora.
While their cause campaigning for gender equality and eradicating ancestral violence is worthy enough in itself, their musical creative expression is equally powerful. Richly melodic and far-ranging, it blends pan-African styles and collaborative harmonies with gritty, contemporary pop. Following two successful albums produced by Congotronix innovator Doctor L, the band have worked with renowned pop producer Jacknife Lee (U2, Taylor Swift, Modest Mouse) to present a totally fresh new sound on their third album Musow Danse, which draws inspiration from hip-hop, trap, and electronic music.
