After numerous experiences as a dancer and a singer in various companies in Africa
and several tours in Europe ( Foliba, Suruntu Kunu, Gondwana, Wountey), Kady Diarra
took her destiny in hand and started her group in 1997. Originated in Bobo Dioulasso,
Burkina Faso, she grew up in a Griot family, at the sound of traditional ceremonies that
rule Burkina's life while opening herself to other West African music.
After more than 400 shows since 1999, Kady and her five musicians enthused with
some communicative energy, offer a stage world in which the sensuality of Sahel music
and the festive energy of African drumming merge into an explosive fusion of ancestral
tradition and celebration giving birth to an exhilarating show.
