Vieux Farka Touré
York Theatre, 639 Commercial, VancouverAfter distinguishing himself from his father, Ali Farka Touré, Vieux has reconnected with the hypnotic desert blues he first played with his dad. Vieux previously embraced reggae, rock, funk, Latin, and dance, but two new records celebrate the deep, layered, traditional sounds of Mali. The genius guitarist plays timeless grooves with a trio.
