Amadou & Mariam @ Konserthuset
Hötorget 8, 111 57 Stockholm, SwedenThe superduo from Mali, Amadou & Mariam is back and more up to date than ever!
Amadou & Mariam is not only Mali’s most successful music export throughout the ages, but also one of the biggest acts of the entire African continent. After several years of silence, Amadou & Mariam returned at the end of last year with the acclaimed album “La Confusion”.
For nearly four decades, the duo has been pulishing the mixing of different styles and influences in their music. With the foundation of their own African soul, they have explored everything from disco to hip hop.
The story of Amadou Bagayoko and Mariam Doumbia is one of the more inspiring in modern music history – a love affair that led to two blind visionaries from Mali to climb top lists around the world, win numerous prizes and direct the audience’s attention to what life can look like in Mali .
Do not miss this legendary duo!
The concert is a joint venture between Selam and Konserthuset Stockholm
