An exhilarating celebration of the living tradition of West African music with this London-based collective, presented in partnership with Wooden Roots.Yahael Camara Onono grew up in London surrounded by the rhythms of the West African diaspora, while also absorbing the multi-genre lingua franca of the city’s hybrid music scenes. He has developed what he calls a “London ear” for the way the city’s jazz, grime and funky house sounds were underpinned by African and Caribbean rhythmic influence.

Drawing on the talent and expertise of London-based musicians from Burkina Faso to the Gambia and assembling a 16-piece band, his Balimaya Project seeks to redefine West African music’s journey and to unite generations and backgrounds in a celebration of cultural fusion.

Here we proudly present Balimaya Project in Snape Maltings Concert Hall in collaboration with Wooden Roots.
