Today we have new music from Afrissippiâs new CD Alliance.  Alliance is the follow up CD to their successful 2005 debut CD Fulani Journey.  If you are not familiar with Afrissippi you are in for a real treat.  The bandâs leader, Guelel Kumba hails from Senegal, West Africa.  He is of the Fulani tribe and moved to Oxford Mississippi a few years ago where he met several local blues musicians.  They soon discovered that the traditional music of Guelelâs tribe blended perfectly with the Hill Country style of blues that the rest of the band had been playing all of their lives.  The results of this musical fusion is a refreshing blend that they like to call World Boogie.  It was produced by Grammy award winner Jimbo Mathus and recorded at his Delta Recording Service in Como Mississippi for Hill Country Records.  Featuring Junior Kimbroughâs Chulahoma Juke Band, the band consists of Guelel Kumba on vocals and acoustic guitar, Eric Deaton on electric guitar, Kinney Kimbrough on drums, Papa Assane Mâbaye on percussion, and Justin Showah on bass with guest trombonist Jeff Callaway.
