Sona Jobarteh's musical work is deeply rooted in the rich griot tradition of West Africa; she serves as a living archive of the Gambian people.
With one ear tuned to the historical reputation of her family, the other to the crucial heritage she strives to pass on, and a heart firmly anchored in both realms, she is preparing a future for the next generation. Her singing and kora playing, leading her group, are firmly within this tradition.
Her current recognition is reflected in over 10 million viewers on YouTube and a significant audience across other digital platforms. This is remarkable, considering she sings in her native languages and follows her unique path in the music industry.
Sona Jobarteh is the first female griot virtuoso of the kora in Africa and a remarkable singer and composer, blending traditional music with blues and Afropop to stunning effect. – Robin Denselow (The Guardian)
