DESCRIPTION:After nearly a decade of pursuing these remarkable artists\, t
 he Walker (and partners the Cedar and Sue McLean &amp\; Associates) bring 
 African music superstars Amadou &amp\; Mariam to Minnesota for the first t
 ime for a rare and intimate concert experience. The blind husband and wife
  duo along with full band deliver their signature mix of Malian blues\, ro
 ck\, pop\, and traditional West African music. \nIn recent years\, their c
 ollaborations with Damon Albarn (Gorillaz)\, Paris-based music provocateur
  Manu Chao\, and stadium tours opening for Coldplay and U2 have spread the
 ir infectious\, innovative music far and wide. Their collaborative spirit 
 also imbues their newest recording Folila (out in March on Nonesuch Record
 s)\, which features guest appearances by Santigold\; TV on the Radio\; Nic
 k Zinner of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs\; Theophilus London\, and Bassekou Kouyate
  (who the Walker and the Cedar introduced in 2010). \nDoors open at 7 pm. 
 This all-ages show is standing room only and is sure to sell out. Copresen
 ted with the Cedar.
