Born into a traveling diplomatic family Rokia Traore absorbed her own Malian traditions into a world-ranging love of music. Playing off the griot tradition she tweaks the traditional Bamana styles by playing her own acoustic guitar and arranging haunting backing vocals.
Her smooth sound is punctuated by the heartfelt raw tone of the n'goni lute and the harp-like kamala.Most recently Traore has made news for a triumphant quasi-opera on the final year of Mozart's life. Wati re-imagines a dying Mozart as a griot in ancient West Africa heir to a long line of hereditary musicians.
