Vieux Farka Touré
Often referred to as “The Hendrix of the Sahara,” VIEUX FARKA TOURÉ was born in Niafunké, Mali in 1981. He is the son of legendary Malian guitar player Ali Farka Touré, who died in 2006. Ali Farka Touré came from a historical tribe of soldiers, and defied his parents in becoming a musician. When Vieux was in his teens, he declared that he also wanted to be a musician. His father disapproved, due to the pressures he had experienced being a musician; rather, he wanted Vieux to become a soldier. But with help from kora maestro Toumani Diabaté, Ali gave his blessing for Vieux to become a musician, shortly before Ali passed.
