WIN! Tickets to Rokia Traore at the Brighton Dome

To support her new album ‘Beautiful Africa’, female singer/songwriter Rokia Traore will be playing just six live UK dates, with one of those being at the Brighton Dome this November.

‘Beautiful Africa’, released earlier this year, was produced by English Musician John Parish who has worked with PJ Harvey, Eels and recorded at Toybox Studios in Bristol, UK. Its lyrics are sung in the Malian-born Traore’s native languages of French and Bambara, as well as some English.

In the autumn of 2012, Traoré joined Damon Albarn’s UK train tour Africa Express, performing scheduled concerts in Middlesbrough, Glasgow, Manchester, Cardiff, Bristol, and London as well as pop-up performances at railway stations, schools, factories, offices, shopping centers, and private homes. Other musicians on the tour included John Paul Jones, Amadou Bagayoko, Baaba Maal, and Paul McCartney.
