Daby Toure
As soon as
they met, they knew each other. Daby Touré: a thirty-something
musician raised in Mauritania, West Africa, currently a leading light
on the Paris, France scene. Skip McDonald: an old school African
American bluesman from Dayton, Ohio, long time resident of London,
England. And having met and jammed one summer’s night at Real World
they kept on meeting and jamming at festivals around the world. Now on
their debut tour to promote their Realworld release which Call My Name
captures the magic of this unique creative union, with songs – some by
Touré, others by McDonald – transformed via imaginative,
instinctive collaboration. Here is African/French culture. African
American/English culture. Traditional African rhythms. Influences from
elsewhere. And, of course, the blues. Playing Bristol as part of
their UK tour to promote their new CD on Realworld Records
Fiddlers.
