African husband and wife musicians touring the UK for the first time as a duo to come to Builth Wells

A husband and wife from Mali touring the UK for the first time as a duo are coming to Builth Wells.

Bassekou Kouyate and Amy Sacko will be performing at the Wyeside Arts Centre on Saturday May 9 at 7.30pm.

From Mali, legendary musician and ngoni master Bassekou Kouyate tours the UK for the first time as a duo with his wife, the revered griot singer and exceptional vocalist Amy Sacko, following the release of Djudjon, L’Oiseau de Garana (2024), their first chart-topping album together.

Connecting past and present, this will be a unique, intimate and extraordinary opportunity to experience a performance that reaches to the very heart of Mali–deeply personal, expressive, chamber-style that promises a rare closeness between artists and audience, a space where each note and lyric resonates deeply

Tickets for the show are £20 and there is a Gen Z offer with limited availability which must be booked via the box office.

All tickets are subject to a £1 admin fee.
