Watch Fatoumata Diawara and get prepared for this Friday!
We at the Schimmel Center for the Arts are excited to be hosting Wassolou artist Fatoumata Diawara’s first solo New York City performance this Friday, September 28. It is hard not to be utterly mesmerized by Fatou’s voice and talent, and with her debut album being released in the U.S. just one month ago, it is the perfect time to see this performer.
After the break, we have a handful of videos showcasing Fatoumata’s live performances. Read up on Fatoumata through recent coverage in Chicago Tribune, Ghettoblaster Magazine and Pitchfork and immerse yourself in her beautiful, heartwarming Malian music. Tickets can be purchased on the Schimmel website, and can use this code to take 15% your ticket purchase.
