First heard by global audiences on Sahel Sounds' Music from Saharan WhatsApp series, Malian guitar hero Bounaly (the stage name of Ali "Bounaly" Traore) makes his full-length debut with "Dimanche à Bamako" ("Sunday in Bamako").

Recorded live on location, the music on "Dimanche à Bamako" is a mix of regional favorites, traditional standards, and originals.

Long songs with looping rhythms, pounding kick, and electric shredding guitar, punctuated by shout outs to the guests of honor.

A raw and frenetic take on Northern Mali desert sound, playing for the diaspora at a Bamako wedding.
