Boubacar and Zaama Nooma:
African World Fusion & Afrobeat
Inspired by traditional Burkinabe music, Boubacar Kafando expresses a certain virtuosity mixed with an asserted rhythmic skill. Along with his musicians from all over the world, they create a stricking, colourful and vibrant universal fusion!
Born in Ouagadougou, Boubacar Kafando has always been passionate about music and he has walked all corners of Burkina Fasso to learn about all the techniques and secrets of traditional music. He devoted himself first to percussions then he explored the art of singing and playing the Kora and the N’goni.
He created his first band in 2001, then he started touring in France before moving there in 2003. Fascinated by all kinds of traditional music, he played mainly in Mandingo orchestras until 2006 (Bankadi Live, Djamakunu, Faso Musik …), using percussions and Kora!
