Product note

Produced by and featuring world-music star Manu Chao, DIMANCHE A BAMAKO showcases the talents of married couple Amadou Bagayoko (vocals, guitar) and Mariam Doumbia (vocals), who met at a Malian institute for the blind. While Amadou & Mariam have been making music together for decades, this album is their first high-profile international release, and they take full advantage of the attention with a buoyant set of French-language tunes mixing traditional Malian sounds with Latin rhythms, folk, blues, and reggae.
