Globally acclaimed music phenomenon Africa Express began in 2006 in Mali, connecting local stars Toumani Diabaté, Bassekou Kouyaté and Amadou & Mariam with visiting artists including Martha Wainwright, Fatboy Slim and co-founder Damon Albarn. Now it is a globally-known project, yet it never loses its capacity to surprise, each live show is unique, filled with spontaneous moments of magic, collaboration and discovery.
The music collective has one EP and five albums to its name to date and this summer will see the release of brand new studio album ‘Africa Express presents… Bahidorá’, out 11 July, just days after they play Budapest!
Recorded in Mexico last year when Africa Express visited the Americas for the first time to headline Bahidorá Festival, the trip saw an extraordinary group of musicians, singers and DJs from around the world come together to write & record new music on the banks of the ancient springs of Bahidorá, resulting in remarkable collection of music, a joyous celebration of musical collaboration.
Africa Express will appear in Budapest with Albarn being joined on stage by 50 artists from across four continents, from Django Django to Moonchild Sanelly, and from Jupiter & Okwess to Baba Sissoko for an unmissable performance that promises to be an incredible cumbia-kuduro-salsa-hiphop-soul-pop fiesta.
