The Ancestral Head
Mande Percussive Geometry
Repertoire rooted in Guinea, Mali and Senegal: the dry slap, liquid tone and resonant bass of the djembe, the rolling cross-rhythms of sangban and kenkeni, and the pitch inflections of the talking drum.
Djembe, dundun and talking drum bridged with Memphis blues, heavy funk pockets and modern studio craft.
