Orchestra Baobab

Orchestra Baobab is a cornerstone of African music, blending Mandinka, Wolof, and Serer traditions with Afro-Cuban rhythms and timeless elegance since its founding in Dakar in 1970. From their golden era to their resurgence in the early 2000s, the band has continually reinvented itself, captivating generations with its hypnotic grooves. In April 2025, they offer fans a taste of their next chapter with a live EP, capturing their electrifying stage presence. Their upcoming album Made In Sénégal, set for October, is a love letter to Senegalese heritage, featuring legendary guests like Baaba Maal. As the second part of a trilogy following Made In Dakar, it paves the way for Made In Africa, a grand celebration of the continent’s musical legacy. With a sound that transcends time, Orchestra Baobab returns once more to prove that their music is, and always will be, eternal.
