Since its creation, the band has always been involved in human causes, by performing in concerts againts malaria, drugs and aids. But at the beginning of year 2008, the band made a step ahead, producing its own album "IT'S MY NATION".
In the same time, they decided to work with the movie-maker Moussa GELONGAL, already wellknown for his video clip for the famous senegalese singer Youssou NDOUR. In March 2008, the whole team went to Oriental Senegal. There, in the wonderful landscape around Tambacounda and among the Bassara people at the Guinean border, two clips were shot. These videos continually run on the TV channels in senegal, The Gambia and Mali, and reveal the artist to the West African musical world. A local tour is set, opening the possibilities to reach the international stage.
With the strength of his lyrics and the virtuosity of his melodies, "LUNE" gives us in his album a wide range of his skills. The maturity of his music and the diversity of his creative world surprise us.
