Diali Cissokho
Griot Korist, Percussionist, & Songwriter
"Diali's natural charisma as a vocal performer may come from his centuries-old griot heritage, but he will also put you in mind of Marvin Gaye, James Brown, and other griots of New World Soul." - Sylvia Pfeiffenberger, Onda Carolina
Welcome!
Thanks for stopping by my page! I'm a griot musician and cultural arts educator originally from Mbour, Senegal, happy to now call the small town of Pittsboro, North Carolina my home. I have had the joy of calling music and music education my life, love, and career since the time I could hold a kora or bang a drum. I hope you enjoy what you see and hear, and stop by for updates often! If you have questions about booking or about my music in general, drop me a line via the contact tab. I'd love to hear from you!
