   About Habib Koite & Bamada
Habib comes from a noble line of Khassonké griots, traditional troubadors who provide wit, wisdom and musical entertainment at social gatherings and special events. Habib grew up surrounded by seventeen brothers and sisters, and developed his unique guitar style accompanying his griot mother. He inherited his passion for music from his paternal grandfather who played the kamele n'goni, a traditional four-stringed instrument associated with hunters from the Wassolou region of Mali. "Nobody really taught me to sing or to play the guitar," explains Habib, "I watched my parents, and it washed off on me."

Merci d'avoir accepté l'invitation.
Un grand bravo pour cette belle musique. J'aime beaucoup.
Je pars au Mali à la fin du mois de juin. Dommage que vous ne soyez pas en concert là bas. ça aurait été chouette de se croiser là bas et de vous entendre sur scène.

Au plaisir de se croiser.
Bonne route
