ABOUT
The Amsterdam-based percussionists Jaco Benders, Rutger van der Ree, and Thomas Bonekamp are the core members of Mokum Foli, today enriched with kora player Albert Distelbrink, all-around djembe and percussion player Fanti O'Bryan, and female Guinean dancer and singer Fina 'Tenegbe' Diawara. Together they will bring you a widely varied musical program based on traditional and less traditional percussion, melodies, songs, and dance from Mali and Guinea. In their search for refreshment, they are using the kora, balafon, djembe, doundouns, talking drum, shakers, log drums, bells, and voices in pleasant musical combinations!
