In this album, he gives a voice to the voiceless, bringing them out of the shadows. Whether it&#8217;s tailors, welders or water vendors, he pays tribute to them through his music, failing to create a foundation in their name. The man who traces the origins of the Blues back to Africa compares it to \u201cWeltar\u00e9\u201d, a way of singing one&#8217;s pain when words fail to express it. He&#8217;ll be at Club Balattou on February 28, in a trio format with himself on guitar, a calabash player and another musician playing either the ngoni, a West African traiditional guitar, or the tamani, a percussion instrument originally from West Africa, depending on the track. A \u201cdangerous trio\u201d, as Samba Tour\u00e9 so aptly puts it. Our journalist Sandra Gasana spoke to him just a few days before the eagerly-awaited Montreal concert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Des racines et des rythmes avec Samba Tour\u00e9\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/L1qghEL4JO4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Baarakelaw\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/68eME1l2xjwqKsrcIN2OhC?si=wjqB6VcSTEekgPc8kw5Bjw&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To close Black History Month, Malian blues guitarist Samba Tour\u00e9 will be making a stop in Montreal for an evening to present his latest opus, \u201cBaarakalew\u201d, released in January 2025.
