VIEUX FARKA TOURE:

NEWS FLASH! Vieux Farka Toure has been nominated for a 2008 BBC World Music award!

Vieux Farka Toure's debut represents a historic passing of the torch from father to son. A highly-talented guitarist, singer, songwriter and percussionist, Vieux Farka Toure crafts songs in the rich Sonrai tradition of his father, famed guitarist Ali Farka Toure.

Vieux's songs are globally-minded music for the new millennium, where ancient African melodies meets reggae and rock on equal footing. The music carries a positive message, and Vieux has spent the last several years promoting the UNICEF "Fight Malaria" campaign to spread awareness about malaria, the number one life-threatening disease for African children.
