Description
On 'Tiger Run', Sally Nyolo's eighth solo album, slinking grooves and deep Cameroonian rhythms combine with gently warping guitars, feather-light percussion and her demure husky vocals.
Alongside Cameroonian traditional influences listen out for ripples of French pop, no doubt sinking into Sally's consciousness during her stint as a backing singer with artists including Jacques Higelin, Sixun and Nicole Croisille and as a member of hugely successful vocal group Zap Mama. Her music is also resonant with bikutsi, a Cameroonian traditional and urban style that is characterized by 6/8 rhythms and female-led vocal choruses.
On this album Sally is joined by a host of musicians including Ivorian jazz-fusion drummer Paco Séry and bass guitarist Papus Diabaté (son of the famous Malian guitarist Zani Diabaté). Soprano Nathalie Leonoff is heard on "Le Faiseur De Pluie Par Tous Les Temps", achieving Sally's longheld dream of working with an opera singer. Bantu bluesman Jo N'Gala adds percussion on "Tiger Run" and "Elle Regarde Passer".
