Colourful, warm, and full of rhythm, Amadou & Mariam are the world's most celebrated African duo. From the streets of Bamako to Glastonbury, their vibrant blend of Malian blues, pop, and soul, and collaborations with Damon Albarn, Chris Martin, Manu Chao, and more, have made them true global icons of joy and resilience. Now, as they prepare their final album and a homecoming concert in Mali, their journey comes full circle.
