Papa Coyote travels to Petosas Accordions in Seattle WA to pick up his Roland FR-4x digital accordion.

Papa picked up his darbuka, riq, zabumba, electronic accordion, and 808 to set the scene of these images from a 2022 trip to Hurghada and Luxor, Egypt. Hit me up if you want to hear the whole track!

Lambango/Jaliya: Traditional Malike song celebrating the Jalyis (Griot) who teach all who listen. My gratitude and highest praises go to those who taught me: Lansana Kouyate of Guinea: master of traditional Kora and awe-inspiring modern African Guitar and M’Baye Diagne of Senegal: master drummer and teacher of the West African Diaspora and Culture who passed in 2022 and is missed.
