Director / Composer / Multi-instrumentalist
An interdisciplinary artist, Lamine Sonko’s work draws on traditional African embodied knowledge to create multi-artform experiences inspired by his cultural background as a guewel (cultural role) of the Sing Sing clan and Korings of Kaabu, and a member of the Serer, Wolof and Mandinko cultural communities of Senegal. With his distinctive traditional vocal style, alongside kora, sabar percussion and guitar he defines new ways to re-imagine the traditional African, contemporary synthesis in music.
