Narrows Center For the Arts

September 29th

Boubacar Traore Narrows Center for the Arts  16 Anawan St, Fall River, MA   (view map) Boubacar Traore doesn’t need much backup to snare an audience. On Mali Denhou (Lusafrica), the singer uses a sparse canvas — just a guitar, harmonica, thumb piano, handclaps, and soft percussion — to give his ditties a rich vibe. The blues-soaked result is dreamy and enticing — signature traits of the Malian picker’s work. “Mondeou” is itchy and radiant; “Minuit” is folky and whimsical. Prepare yourself for a rare visit when the maestro takes the stage at the Narrows Center for the Arts, 16 Anawan Street, Fall River, Massachusetts, at 8 pm | $23 | 508.324.1926 | ncfta.org  09/21/11 >> go there
