Don't worry we have plenty more current events to choose from.

The son of late Malian guitar legend Ali Farka Touré, encouraged from childhood by kora maestro Toumani Diabaté, Vieux Farka Touré at once celebrates and transcends those formative influences on his new third album The Secret. Recorded in Bamako and Brooklyn, it further develops the guitarist and singer’s distinctive, hypnotic amalgam of desert blues, rock, jazz and Malian sounds, also featuring vocalist Dave Matthews, Derek Trucks on electric slide guitar and jazz guitarist John Scofield.

Supporting tonight are Edinburgh based Bwani Junction. Their music has a number of influences ranging from reggae, Afro beat and indie-pop which gives them a unique and memorable sound.
