• Makan Badjé Tounkara, a griot, is the grandson of Djeli Baba Sissoko, the acknowledged leader of Malian Jalis in the 1990s. He has played alongside such renowned artists as Salief Keita and Baba Maal and has introduced an instrumental innovation by adding three strings to the traditionally four stringed ngoni, the type of lute commonly played amongst the Mande peoples.

• For this recording various guests, including his wife, provide vocals while instrumental support is provided by four string and bass ngoni and various percussion instruments.
