Description: Boubacar Traoré is from the Bambara region of Mali. A self taught musician influenced by American blues and kassonké, a traditional music style from the Kayes region. In the early 1960s, Mali won its independence and the people of Mali awoke each morning to the sound of Kar Kar's (his nickname) melancholic voice on the radio which sang of independence. Boubacar Traoré is one of these solid men who reflects the history of a country, the hopes and the despairs of a people. 10/05/11 >> go there
