Malian vibes for this Friday. “Vieux” Farka Touré is the son of the famous Ali Farka Touré, a guitarist from Mali in Africa. Touré the younger, through a series of fateful coincidences, ended up making an album with American band Khruangbin (who are well worth a listen on their own), covering some of his father’s greatest hits.
The album is incredibly chill and atmospheric; perfect music to have on while relaxing on a hot summer day, or even while working.
This album is pure gold. And so is this band. I highly recommend giving them a listen. You can get their album here:
