Lala Tamar & Friends, featuring Yacouba Sissoko

Lala Tamar & Friends, featuring master kora player Yacouba Sissoko, bring together Moroccan soul, Brazilian rhythm, and West African tradition in a powerful cross-cultural performance. Lala infuses ancient North African songs with gnawa trance and feminine energy, while Yacouba shares messages of peace and harmony through the kora’s enchanting sound. Joined by Zachi Asher on oud/guitar and Phil Mayer on percussion, the ensemble evokes the spirit of a desert caravan—blending African strings, Arab melodies, and ceremonial rhythms for an unforgettable night of music, storytelling, and connection that transcends borders.
