Ngoni Cadie

Mamadou and Vanessa

Music from the Wassalou region of Mali, West Africa infused with blues licks ala Ali Farka Toure, Issa Bagayogo, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters and Leadbelly.

Mamadou Sidibe is from Mali, West Africa and has played a groundbreaking role in Mali music.  He was one of the first to transform the traditional Malian instrument the doson'goni, to the now popular kameln'goni.  He changed the number of strings from 6 to 8, and completely changed the melodies from sacred hunters songs to  popular music...

Picture for song 'Sometimes' by artist 'Mark Harrington'

Sometimes

Mark Harrington

Not your typical singer-songwriter: the music is alternative, drawing on rock (prog to punk to goth), alt-pop, and experimental ('avant') influences.

Mark Harrington released a number of independent solo recordings in the late 80s, and 2 CDs in the 90s: 1993's Capricorn Flakes, and 1999's Trash Icon. The CDs are 'alt-pop/rock' and the songs don't fit into a single genre. This is not your typical singer-songwriter music. The often quirky and unique production techniques support the lyrics that...

along with some collaborations with others.
