Mali Yaro and Goumbé Star with special guest Hadiza Mangou

 Hear this show now: Pop-up listen Pop-up player! | Add or read comments




Since forming in the mid 90s, Niger's Mali Yaro and Goumbé Star have been singing about serious political and social issues: For example, the band's 2008 cd made an impassioned call for peace in the troubled north of the country. But this electric West African powerhouse also knows how to let loose, delighting crowds on its first US tour with potent polyrhythmic dancefloor workouts.

Mali Yaro and Goumbé Star will rock the Shrine 2271 Adam Clayton Powell Blvd (just above 133 St) in Harlem Friday March 16 at midnight.

Big thanks to our illustrious engineer Juan Aboites!
