kora! kora! kora!
Alright, be honest. You have no fucking clue who either of those people are, but you could probably rattle off couple dozen G.I. Joes from memory. You’re about overdue for a high-brow overhaul. No biggie—we promise this one’s pretty bitchin’. Sissoko is considered one of the modern-day virtuosos of the kora, which is kinda what you’d get if a lute ate a whole bunch of other lutes, then kicked the shit out of a sitar for good measure. The du to his et, Segal is one of France’s foremost cellists, which is kinda like saying someone’s the arm wrestling champion of Armwrestlingstan. Together? Haute shit.
