Toumani Diabate plays the kora, a harp unique to West Africa with 21 strings. Vieux Farka Toure's debut represents a historic passing of the torch from father to son. A highly-talented guitarist, singer, songwriter and percussionist, Vieux Farka Toure crafts songs in the rich Sonrai tradition of his late father, famed guitarist Ali Farka Toure.

I caught them in Brooklyn on July 19th. They were a lot of fun. They had a great time as did the audience. I took some pictures and video. They are posted here:
