Mamadou's Fantastic Band, featuring members of Super Yamba - presented by Theoria Foundation
Mamadou Mbenge is a master of the tama talking drum from Senegal, West Africa. He follows in a long line of griot (oral story-tellers) musicians. The Fantastic Band play drum-heavy dance grooves that are rooted in West African rhythms, alongside R&B, soul, jazz and whatever else strikes their fancy. Mamadou will be joined by members of the Brooklyn-based Afro-funk band Super Yamba.
