Toumani Diabate to Join Björk for Three London Shows

Björk has announced that Toumani Diabate will join her and her band for three shows on her Volta tour later this month, in London. The performances will take place on April 14, 17, and 20 at the Hammersmith Apollo. The shows precede Toumani's own European tour, which gets under way on April 25 at the Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord in Paris.

Toumani last joined the Icelandic star in a memorable guest appearance on stage at the Glastonbury festival last summer; he performed the kora on her latest album, Volta, on the track "Hope." For more information, visit bjork.com.
