Baba Sissoko is from Mali and he is the last undisputed griot alive. His voice evokes the lost vibe of the deepest and wildest side of west Africa. A magic land that he largely crossed since his childhood in singing and playing with his legendary grandfather Djeli Baba Sissoko. With the help of the soulful voices of Djeli Mah Damba Koroba and Djana Sissoko, respectively his mother and his young daughter he recorded “Three Gees”. They are the voices of the past, the present and the future living in the twilight zone where the malian roots blooms into a new sound of hope and happiness. Involved are also Fernando "Bugaloo" Velez (The Dap-kings, Antibalas) on percussions and the grammy winner Corey Harris on slide guitar.
