Vieux Farka Touré @ EartH (Evolutionary Arts Hackney)
Details
Having rocked a sold-out show in London last year, internationally respected Malian guitarist Vieux Farka Touré returns to showcase his virtuosic musicianship once more.
After the momentous release of Ali, a collaborative album with indie-darlings-turned-global-powerhouse Khruangbin, Vieux Farka Touré’s star power is spreading far and wide.
Widely regarded as “the Hendrix of the Sahara”, Touré’s limelight has now widened beyond the World Music stage. Although always inspired and propelled by the far-reaching legacy of his late-father Ali Farka Toure and the Songhai music of northern Mali, Touré’s music has found a distinctive voice of its own. Blending traditional melodies and rhythms with soft touches of hypnotic psychedelia, his music is riveting in all its twists and turns.

We can meet half an hour before the gig starts - for a drink (soft or alcoholic as you wish) and if it's not too late afterwards stay for another drink and post gig post mortem
Shows normally start an hour after the 'doors open' time.
Coordinating buying seats so we can sit together sounds way too complicated, but often gigs have standing tickets only so if that's the case we can stay together as a group
If this is your first Meet Up group don't worry, I'll try to make you feel welcome and introduce you to other members of the group as soon as you arrive 🤗
