Appearing at the NAC with a new album under her belt, Djely Tapa will enchant you with her voice and charisma.
With Dankoraba, Djely Tapa pursues her artistic vision at the intersection of Malian and Western cultures, past, present and future. Originally from the Kayes region of western Mali, Djely Tapa shares the wise words and vocal art of the griots, iconic figures of ancient and contemporary Malian society whose origins date back to the Mandingo Empire of the 13th century. Her repertoire blends Mandingo traditions, desert blues, and electronic sounds. In 2019, she made her solo debut with her album Barokan (2020 Juno Award, World Music Album of the Year) and was named Révélation Radio-Canada.
