Eghass Malan
Recorded in Cologne after only a handful of concerts on the group's first European tour.
Les Filles de Illighadad, 2017
Christopher Kirkley produced, co-produced by the group, Mathieu Petolla and Bear Machine, who engineered at Bear Cave Studios; Jason Powers mixed and Timothy Stollenwerk mastered. Fatou Seidi Ghali plays guitar and sings, with Alamnou Akrouni leading the tende songs, Amaria Mamadalher and Abdoulaye Madassane, and Ghali says of the guitar that it is something new and not part of their tradition. The group's discography runs Les Filles de Illighadad (2016), this album and a live album in 2021. KLOF's Song of the Day on December 6, 2017 quoted hypnotic guitar riffs, driving rhythm and polyphonic resonant vocals, and said the recording keeps a spontaneous and inspired feeling.
