Last week’s concert in Ziguinchor (the capital of the Ziguinchor region in southern Senegal) went off without a hitch! There were lively performances by the Xeex Sibbiru contestants, Maam Bala of the Gambia, and of course Viviane. We saw our first female winner, Salla Dieye, take the Ziguinchor regional concert. She will be joining the 7 other regional winners at the final concert in Dakar on June 9.
We’ll have more photos and pictures up soon, but for now, here’s a taste of Maam Bala’s performance.
We have five concerts left, starting with Tambacounda and Kaolack this weekend. Some of the most talented musicians in Senegal are coming out to perform. Keep your eyes peeled and your ears open for more!
