Thione Diop & Yeke Yeke, Sacred Rhythms from Senegal Thione Diop was born to a Griot family in Senegal.As such his responsibility is to preserve his community’s history, values and cultural identity.

When this young man lays his hands on his drum a powerful magic springs forth that reminds us of the sacred roots of all African Drumming traditions.An absolute favourite at the 2002 Festival, Thione will have you up dancing in no time.
