FME 2024 | West African, Rock, Psychedelic: The Perfect Blend of Orchestra Gold

Interview by Alain Brunet
Genres and styles : Africa / Malian Traditional / Psych-Rock

Additional Information

On stage Thursday night in the opening program, she was one of the big draws of the FME 2024 according to her management and also according to many opinions: Orchestra Gold is a perfect blend of psychedelic rock, desert blues, bamabara music, Mandinka melodies and Afrobeat. The frontwoman has all the attributes of an excellent Malian singer. The acid guitars, the saturation streaks over hellish beats. That’s why we had to get to know the members of this unique band, based in Oakland in the Bay Area, on Thursday.
