Amadou & Miriam CMJ Tickets on sale

“Now American listeners have a chance to hear one of the year’s most unexpected rock ‘n’ roll success stories: a nimble, playful CD that nods toward everything from indie-rock to dance music. This week the duo made a rare promotional trip to the United States, which ended with a pair of rapturously received concerts at Joe’s Pub on Tuesday night. Sometime after 1 a.m. on Wednesday, they began the final encore with “La Réalité,” an exuberant Afro-disco track that gives Mr. Bagayoko space to wind his guitar lines around a refrain borrowed from the eccentric reggae producer Lee Perry; from the noise in the crowd, even the two singers onstage must have known that people were dancing.” [NY TIMES] (thx again danfun)
