Juldeh Camara
Undoubtedly one of the leading riti (nyanyeru) players of West Africa, and one of the most prominent Fula musicians of his generation, being blessed with a fine voice and inspirational compositional skills marked by his extensive discography. Juldeh is now resident in the UK, and making his mark as both a solo performer and as a valuable collaborating musician on the touring, recording, and workshop circuits here. The riti is a traditional 1-stringed fiddle originating from the nomadic Fulani cultures of the Sahel, and it is with this sound, evoking desert blues, that Juldeh has captivated so many audiences & fellow musicians over the years.
