Not long now ‘til we’ll be together in the mountains. In this final preview episode ahead of Green Man 2024, N’famady Kouyaté shares some Green Man stories and Ella from PVA picks her favourite After Dark offerings. See you all soon.
With balafon — wooden xylophone — in hand, N’famady Kouyaté returns to Green Man with his modern interpretations of West African mandingue songs. The Guinean artist relocated to Cardiff in 2019 and has already played among our mountains as well as supporting Gruff Rhys on tour. Expect to see a djembe, kora, doundoun, or calabash or two alongside brass, drums, and guitars, as he inflects traditional sounds with pop, funk, and jazz.
Key players in south London's fervent indie scene, PVA are purveyors of good times and beating pulses. Come witness their blistering late-night DJ set on Saturday in the Walled Garden.
