In Behind The Music this week, we meet Abdoulaye Samb, a Senegalese guitarist, singer and composer whose love of mixing musical genres and styles creates wonderful fusions of cultures and musics. In the interview Abdoulaye tells us about his latest album Wouty, and the musicians from Senegal who have inspired him along the way.

Abdoulaye will be performing with his band Minnijiaraby on Thursday 30th April in the Brunei Gallery at SOAS.
