About Dembo Jobarteh
Dembo Jobarteh is a griot from Niani Kayai, The Gambia. In the past African griots were court musicians, singing praise of their leaders and thereby telling the history of the region. Gambia Banko was released in the autumn of 2005. On this cd Dembo plays kora and sings in Mandinka and English. Dembo Jobarteh is a nephew of Amadu Bansang Jobarteh, the famous kora-player and teacher of world music specialist Lucy Duran. Another well known family member is Malamini Jobarteh, father of Tata Dindin.
