Ifang Bondi

From Gambia, Senegal

Be yourself - that's what their name means, and that's what this award-winning Gambian group does. Dazzling percussion underpins crystalline kora. Wild riti fiddling leaps joyously alongside high-energy guitar and keyboard wizardry. Haunting vocals pull it all together, and the whole glowing musical tapestry is what can only be described as West African music at its best.
