Product Description

Album Description

Daby Balde is one of Senegal's best kept musical secrets, long celebrated at home and now exploding onto the international scene. His stunning arrangements are based on the Fula traditions from the south of the country and feature the fiddle, accordion and flute alongside the more familiar West African sounds of the kora, acoustic guitar and percussion. With strikingly rich and beautiful melodies, captivating vocals and a repertoire of euphoric to melancholic, Daby Balde is a West African star on the rise.

`Wonderfully assured, full of subtle details. Daby Balde may well emerge as a major figure to stand alongside the internationally established Senegalese singers, Youssou N'Dour and Baba Maal.' Charlie Gillett BBC radio

5.0 out of 5 stars That good?, 13 Oct 2005
I can honestly say that this album is a true delight to listen to. I never feel the need to write a review because I think an album should sell itself, but this album and artist deserves a good review
Wonderful African melodies, harmonies and traditional instruments added with "western instruments" such as the accordeon, saxophone and violin. Those instruments never dominate but add a wonderful flavour to things. Highly recommended for "world" music lovers
