Thione Seck's music is part of the Mbalax
style. In Mbalax, Senegalese dance music is mixed with influeces from egypt and india. This explosive mix will surely not allow the first evening at the moers
festival to start without a bang.
On the main stage in Moers, Thione Seck will be presenting the world-premiere live-concert of his album Orientation,
released in 2006 and nominated for the BBC3 Radio's World Music Album of
the Year.
Just like these young men in the clip, I'm hoping for an equally fantastic dance performance on the part of the visitors:
A couple of years later, Thione Seck get's a little more romantic:
An emotional and moving night - in all senses
of the word - awaits us on Friday.
