Nakany Kanté showcases her third album From Conakry to Barcelona at Sala BCN on August 23rd. She took advantage of her stays in Guinea, recording the bulk of the LP—guitars, basses, percussion, kora, and backing vocals—in studios there, giving the the record a different sound than her songs recorded in Barcelona.

This third release is more mature than her previous work, crossing genre lines with ease and flair. In addition to Mandingo pop, she experiments with disco, European pop, and the ballads from the streets of Conakry.
