Noura Mint Seymali – Yenbett

Noura Mint Seymali's 3rd album Yenbett (her first since 2016) is a stunning explosion of contemporary Mauritanian griot music, and once again confirms her status as one of the world's most potent voices. Co-produced by Matthew Tinari (Noura's drummer) and Mikey Coltun (Mdou Moctar) the new album's approach is both raw and experimental; capturing the band's powerful in situ performances with taught clarity and adventuresome sonics. Reflecting her influence, and the acclaim that she's accumulated throughout her career, Seymali was recently honoured with the 2025 WOMEX Artist of the Year Award.
