Manhó (Bride) from Karam by Kimi Djabaté
Kimi Djabaté was raised in Tabato, Guinea-Bissau, a village known for its griots, hereditary singer-poets. A griot by birth, Kimi has been playing the balafón, the African xylophone, since he was just three years old. Kimi has collaborated with many exceptional musicians, including Mory Kanté, Waldemar Bastos, Netos de Gumbé and, most recently, the pop star Madonna.
