UK - One of Senegal's musical treasures, Orchestra Baobab, will be touring the UK n November. Orchestra Baobab is one of Africa’s soul survivors, a legendary band who have come through nearly four decades together with their classic 1970s line-up largely intact. Now they return with their first new album in five years – an album that can only have been ‘made in Dakar’.
