Songhoy Blues at the Songlines Music Awards 2016 Winners' Concert, October 3

[@melissamerry2334]

My partner and I were at this concert to see Mariza and Songhoy Blues were a very happy very enjoyable bonus...the Barbican is not the easiest place to go wild but I can vouch for the love and appreciation they received from the crowd. For my part I found out my father passed away in the US on the day of this concert. I was very sad but chose to celebrate my father's spirit through the fabulous performances we saw. Thanks for posting this xx

Love Songhoy Blues, followed them since they played a set at one of the minor stages at Glastonbury years ago. They are so full of life and passion - ffs crowd why aren't you in the aisles dancing???????

[@onyedrums]

Nice spiritual rhythmic quality to the mix of their sound!!!!

[@ScottEarlam-qv6nb]

These are gonna be massive i guarantee it

[@moulayeidrisshaidara1626]

They are actually the former Malian musician, Ali Farka's musician heirs. Very nice songs. No matter where I may be, I like my country from the North to the South; as well as from the East to the West. God Save Mali United.

Saw them tonight in Vancouver- what a great band! So tight and fun, excellent writing over cool polyrhythms. See them if you can. PS- this crowd should dancing and sweating their asses off! Energy tonight at the show was through the roof.

[@paulquirk3783]

I saw them at a small club in Chicago, Martyr's, probably a few years before this performance. They were not yet widely known. My friends and I loved the show. I talked to the front man on the sidewalk as they were packing up. I asked them if there were American rock or blues musicians that influenced them. He practically drew a blank and then said Jimmy Hendrix. I took that to mean, No. I don't hear any Hendrix at all. I gather they didn't listen to American rock or blues.

Is the audience real or carboard? FFS people... Awesome band and performance.

[@Ben_Mdws]

613 The Evil TBF, it's a seated gig, which is never ideal and always feels a bit weird. The applause is warm and forthcoming though!

[@Featinwe]

Watching this on YT I couldn't hold still... I can't imagine what I would be doing seeing this live! cardboard people, yeah... I've been to seated gigs were everyone was just dancing anyway.

[@randyclere2330]

No they are white Englanders w/sticks up their arses!

[@mapatterson22]

Go to 33 they're dancing then.

[@smrtn2441]

Audience is clearly asleep.

[@laabskowalski8231]

Because they are listening to a mantra.

[@CheevAchoo]

crowd is a bunch of stiffs. I'm jamming out in my seat for you Songhoy !!
