173: Songhoy Blues

The Vinyl Exam

Sama highlights one of the funnest desert blues bands putting out music today: Songhoy Blues. From the back cover of their 2nd album Resistance (2017): "Songhoy Blues has always been about resistance. We started the group during a civil war, in the face of a music ban, to create something positive out of adversity. As long as we have music left in us and something to say, we’ll keep fighting each day with music as our weapon, our songs as our resistance."
