With Fatoumata Diawara

Cerys Matthews brings you eclectic music from blues to beats, featuring a live performance from Fatoumata Diawara.

Fatoumata Diawara was born in the Côte d'Ivoire and raised in Mali. She is now based in Paris and is creating a distinctively African spin to the concept of the female singer-songwriter. Fatoumata's debut album, 'Fatou', is released on World Circuit in September and she has already received accolades from the likes of Damon Albarn, Toumani Diabaté, Herbie Hancock & Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones.
