Songhoy Blues are a desert blues four-piece from Mali. The band grew out of political anger and civil unrest, with themes in their music inspired by their life experiences of being pushed out of their hometowns in North Mali by a jihadist group. They aim to capture the spirit of northern Mali in their energetic performances and on albums like their 2015 debut, Music in Exile, and 2020's harder-rocking Optimisme. For 2025's Héritage, they switched to acoustic, traditional instruments, returning to the roots of Malian music.
