Hailed as one of the most vital standard-bearers of modern African music, Fatoumata Diawara performs as part of In the Round.
The Malian artist has been praised for her distinctive, melodic voice and ability to harmonise Pan-African folk and traditional instrumentals with soul, R&B and funk.
With two albums to date, Fatoumata has worked with some of the biggest names in contemporary music including, Bobby Womack, Paul McCartney and Herbie Hancock.
The evening will see support from Roundhouse Resident Elena Šiljić.
Our yearlong Resident Artists Programme facilitates the artistic development of outstanding emerging artists as they transition into the creative industries. Each year we recruit artists in Music, Circus and Performing Arts.
Alongside training and mentoring, the programme provides opportunities to perform on incredible stages within the Roundhouse and across a wide variety of platforms beyond our walls.
