With an amazing 14 year apprenticeship to world renowned Famoudou Konate, during which Sayon was a member of Famoudou’s Hamana Foli Kan ensemble along with Billy Konate, Nansady Keita and others, Sayon is honored to think of Famoudou as his drum father. Sayon lovingly shares what he learned and the rich culture of the drum, music and song from the Sankaran region of Guinea, with an impeccable sense of time and a sound on the djembe that is as clear as a bell.
