Biography:
Kemba Sussoko began learning to play the Mandinka's Kora at eight.
He is the equivalent at the European troubadour. Kemba is a griot
vocalist who also plays the kora, a half-gourd with a neck with
21 strings, tense as a harp. The songs he plays are almost all
traditional and meant as tribute to rulers or deceased, or for
special family. Discography:
