Mdou Moctar - The Agadez Folders: Live at Mdou's House
Watch the 20-minute short film "Live from Mdou's House," filmed last year at the guitarist's home in Niger. “This was one of the first sessions we recorded on that Agadez trip,” explains bassist / producer, Mikey Coltun. “We wanted it to feel relaxed and comfortable, so, as we all gathered, Mdou's house felt like the perfect place to film acoustic renditions of the ‘Funeral For Justice’ songs. Much like any session we've filmed in Niger, friends would stop by and join in, often clapping along and singing.”
Purchase / stream 'Tears of Injustice,' the new acoustic album from Mdou Moctar out now.
‘Tears of Injustice’ is ‘Funeral for Justice’ completely re-recorded and rearranged for acoustic and traditional instruments. The meditative mirror-image to the blistering original.
