Seckou Keita SKQ
July 2, 2008
Hailing from Senegal, Italy, Egypt and The Gambia, The Seckou Keita Quintet are one of the fastest growing, independent bands du jour, who's forthcoming album is already garnering international attention as the band has received an ‘Honourable Mention’ in the Instrumental category at the International Songwriting Competition. Seckou Keita leads the quartet with his experimental tunings and virtuoso kora playing (a West African stringed instrument likened to the harp or the lute) supported by the double bass/electric bass of Davide Mantovani, the eclectic percussions of Surahata Susso, the distinguished sound of the violin by Samy Bishai and enchanting voice of the gracious Binta Suso - the newest addition to the band, turning the quartet into a quintet!
