Celebrated Senegalese master-musician Baaba Maal will bring his dynamic live energy to the Old Town School to debut songs from his latest full length "Television" which beautifully blends electronic dance elements with the timeless sounds of West African musical traditions. Recorded over the last three years in both London and the Senegalese capital of Dakar, Baaba Maal opens his arms wide on this one and embraces a multi-lingual approach as well as a diverse sampling of eclectic musical styles. Live, Baaba Maal is electric and astounding. This show is not to be missed.

"Maal has a notoriously open mind when it comes to sonic possibilities." -- NPR's All Songs Considered

"Mr. Maal's socially conscious songs float in a sensuous bubble of electronica." -- New York Times
