The radiant power of Amadou and Mariam continues to shine with their new album L’amour à la Folie. This record, fully completed before Amadou’s passing, will be released on October 24, the day of his birth. A return-to-the-roots album, where traditional instruments and electronic artillery coexist, Malian blues and European textures, heritage and fraternity, learning and wisdom. It is a long-term record, crafted over sessions in Barcelona, Bamako, and Paris. It crystallizes what the duo has always strived to honor: expressing as authentically as possible their impulses, observations, doubts, declarations of love, realizations, and worries.
