Garden Sessions: Alain Rouamba and Josh Doughty

  • st george hall Bristol, England, United Kingdom (map)

Alain Rouamba and Josh Doughty bring together two very different musical backgrounds, combining the beautiful melodies and rhythms of the West African kora and ngoni.

Alain grew up in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso, learning his craft from a Griot family, where he was always surrounded by music.

Josh was inspired by the powerful kora music of Mali from an early age and developed his own unique style on the instrument, meshing traditional rhythms with modern western influences.

These two accomplished and distinctive musical voices join forces to create a captivating afternoon of music.
