About

An international group of artists fusing traditional and contemporary styles of West African music, Manden Express draw their inspiration from the great musical traditions of the Mande Empire in what is now known as Mali.

Inspired by traditional styles and the explosion of new musical influences that merged with African music in the 1960′s, Manden Express blend Kamele n’goni harp, Kora, djembe, and drums with electric bass and guitar to produce stomping grooves and hypnotic time patterns.
