Juju is a term that originally was used to describe the religious practices of different tribes of West Africa, but today that term has more meaning, and describes the extraordinary duo of British guitarist Justin Adams and singer- Ritti teacher (one-stringed fiddle) Juldeh Camara, considered the Jimi Hendrix of the Gambia.
Cartagena acted last night, particularly in the Town Hall Square, surrounded by audience, joining the cast of artists who are going through this edition of The Sea Music.
Adams and Camara, or better Juju, are individually recognized artists, and now take a step forward in his career and published In Trance.
An album full of ferocity and full moon over the desert.
Recorded live in the chords of the guitars of Adams compete and intertwine with the Chamber Ritti riffs and bittersweet laments with his words in Fulani, their native language, creating melodies and trance rhythms permeated African, African blues, jazz and rock.
And that's what they offered in Cartagena, issues that cause palpitations and pure music, wild and vibrant.
