Vieux Farka Touré performs "Fafa" as part of #SWMF15
Revival Bar, Toronto
The Small World Festival is thrilled to welcome back one of our favourite artists. Vieux Farka Touré is known for dazzling crowds with his speed and dexterity on the guitar, as well as his palpable charisma and luminous smile, both of which captivate audiences around the world.
"Vieux’s mesmeric, curling grooves and dazzling fluid phrasing are an earful of fresh air. " - The Times (London)
Son of Malian music legend Ali Farka Touré, Vieux has transcended his family legacy to become a true world music superstar in his own right, forging a singular identity as a singer, guitarist, and composer whose influences range far beyond his homeland. He was strongly discouraged from playing music by his father, who wanted to spare his son from the harsh realities of a musician’s life. Despite the paternal disapproval, he began playing guitar with the encouragement of Malian kora virtuoso Toumani Diabaté. Touré’s 2007 self-titled debut album was an unmistakable statement of purpose, full of richly soulful songs that blended the African guitar tradition with American blues and rock, all built on Touré’s virtuoso guitar playing - a signature that cemented his reputation as the 'Hendrix of the Sahara'.
Vieux is also known for his critically-acclaimed collaboration with Israeli superstar Idan Raichel: The Tel Aviv Sessions. This year, Vieux is preparing to release another unexpected, genre-bending collaborative album, this time with New York-based singer Julia Easterlin, aptly titled ‘Touristes’. With each new project, Vieux expands his horizons, embraces new challenges and further entrenches his reputation as one of the world’s most talented and innovative musicians. Touré’s new album, aptly titled 'Touristes', is a collaboration with New York-based singer Julia Easterlin. Mixing traditional Malian songs and the sounds of ancient Africa with blues and rock, Vieux Farka Touré creates world music for the 21st century.
"... Touré inherited his dad's dazzlingly fluid phrasing but clearly also digs the fiery African blues rock of bands like Tinariwen. " - Rolling Stone

His sound is so distinct, when you hear the guitar, you know it's Vieux Farka Toure, just like you know it's Santana or Eric Clapton. Fabulous!!
I could listen all day.
Or, Ali Farka?..
Where ever Ali is, he is looking, beaming with such pride. This is spiritual
The father's son really. Love this song !!!
Bonjour MR, merci beaucoup pour cette très belle chanson.
هذا. الشبل من من ذاك الاسد. رحمك الله على توري. ومزيدامن التقدم فيوكس
He have magic fingers,like father like son.
I was lost. By listening this song , it feels good to find my soul again... Thanks Farka....
If ask me Malian music is the best in Africa especially Ali farka T & his son vouex. Simply beautiful music. AAB from Ethiopia
Ali Farka Touré peut dormir tranquillement tranquille car la relève est assuré,
Ils assurent tous: Afel Bokoum, Samba Touré, Vieux FARKA, la bonne relève.
You can't even put words on the beauty of such music, I just feel like saying thanks for the joy you put to the hearts. Greetings from Senegal 🇸🇳
Fabulous, he honors his father!
La musique malienne est tout simplement magnifique 🇲🇱♥️
his dad was the greatest ever!!! i am not too surprised about his talent at all!!
It is Vieux's music I want to listen to always-from the first time I saw him in 2013. He is simply the master of West African music.
Nope, so many beautiful masters in West Africa. Salif Kieta and Angelique Kidjo are pure talents too. The ones who are dead are talents the entire West Africa will forever miss. I did not mention them because I'm hoping you search for them and share in our beautiful music.
Good music
Vieux tu es comme ton père, merci
wonderfull african music
Fabuleux tout ce travail et cet héritage qui se perpétue de génération en génération, de Pères aux fils. Fierté africaine... Salutations et reconnaissances du Burkina Faso
Magics fingers, this man is incredible talent !!
Vieux Farka digne héritier du grand Aly Farka TOURE avec une voix et une habileté de manier à la perfection sa guitare 🎸 pour adoucir les cœurs avec des compositions authentiques du Mali 🇲🇱 profond.
I just love the rhythms he produces when playing.

His guitar was singing with him
!!! Wow what a guitar - picking style !!!. phenomenal. also great band. the bass sond/player i like a lot too. its not my kind of music. main reason : i dont understand one word. and the lyrics are very important to me too. can anyone tell me if he or african guitarists use another tuning than "our" standrdard - tuning. i also like a lot of oriental scales wich got only 5 tones i heared...instead off our 8 tome scale (c d e f g a b c ). g from germany
👍❤👍
Bit fast in playing guitar, Ali Fraka had sense makes you feel the music so called African blues.
🇲🇱🇲🇱🇲🇱🇲🇱🙏❤️💪

Its not my kind of music (main reason is because i dont understand the lyrics, whats important for me to) But this track is good bluesey and he is a phenmenal guitar - player. What a pickingstyle, wow !!! I like this african guitar - playing style. I dont know why it sounds so differnt. Does anyone knows something about there tuning or what scales he/africans play ? I also like oriental guitar scales. They got only a 5 tones.(i heared) Most cultures got the 8 "tone ladder" (c d e f g a b c). So, again.. this is a great track. G from germany
I don't play guitar but I know they use different tuning, rythms and scales. There are many videos explaining this. Most would agree that the rhythm is the most important thing. Its almost always based on "cross rhythm."
Another important thing is the scales and playing style are derived from other African instruments adapted to the modern guitar. Many of these guitarists started off on traditional African instruments like Ngoni(lute), Njakra(violin), kora(harp) etc. and later taught themselves to play modern instruments.
Killer break 3:40 .. God plans music from his fingers..
