Amadou & Mariam, Gothenburg gig review — Malian duo inspire love and frenzy

09/07/2024

Mariam Doumbia and Amadou Bagayoko have been singing together for more than 40 years. As Amadou & Mariam, the blind husband-and-wife duo have become standard-bearers for Mali’s resilient music scene, adding elements of pop, dance, rock and blues to the folk stylings of their Bambara heritage. Since working with French-Spanish singer Manu Chao on their global breakthrough, 2004’s Dimanche à Bamako, they have collaborated with the likes of Damon Albarn and TV on the Radio. The sweetly singing Doumbia and gritty guitarist Bagayoko are on a worldwide tour in advance of the release of a compilation celebrating the past two decades of their career, La Vie Est Belle, due out in September. In front of 400 attendees at the converted warehouse Film Studios, as part of the Clandestino Festival in Gothenburg, Sweden, Amadou & Mariam gave a warm and jubilant concert that felt like an affirmation of their entwined lives and career.
