World renowned Kora Musician and Master Teller of Tales, Baba the Storyteller, travels the world sharing his music and tales. Literally, hundreds of listeners are tuned in bi-weekly and enjoying stories and music on his popular podcast on iTunes known as Timeless Tales. Baba’s newest releases are two albums, “The Art of Storytelling - Vol.1″ and “The Art of Storytelling - Vol.2.” These albums are currently available for download from Baba’s “Storytelling Store,” “The iTunes Music Store,” and Amazon Mp3.
Whether you are hosting a large gala event, or more intimate affair, Baba’s enchanting interactions are, without fail, the most riveting you will ever have the pleasure to experience.
Says Baba, “I didn’t actively pursue the life of a musician and storyteller. The bardic craft claimed me. The themes of history, culture and traditions interwoven throughout my performances are there so that I can acknowledge the past as the catalyst for everything to be done in the future. This is what the Art of Jaliyaa is about. Stories, history, music and words illustrate, more than anything else, the necessity of human interdependence. No matter how sharp an axe may be, it will never cut its’ own handle.”
