Amadou Suso in The Retreat front bar

From Oztix · Last checked 14 Nov. That's our last look, not a live ticket check.

Event details may change. Confirm times, availability and prices with the organiser before attending.

The lowdown

The phenomenally talented Amadou Suso is a master of the kora, a traditional West African stringed instrument, and is also a direct descendent of the world’s first kora player, Koriang Musa Suso.

As a music maker, or ‘jali’ by birthright, Amadou embodies the griot traditions of the Mandinka of West Africa. Known widely as the ‘Jimi Hendrix of the kora’, Amadou fulfils his ancestral duties to share the culture of his people through an intoxicating contemporary mastery of the African harp.
