We are eight people on stage, with instruments like Kora, NвЂ™Goni, Guitar, Bass, Keyboards, flute+Saxophone and Drums+ Percussions. Who will be on stage with you for the Australian shows? We found a studio in Bamako to record the voicesВ and did the recording of musicians and other voices in Paris. Two singers of the record come from this traditional music: Adama Coulibaly on вЂFamily TreeвЂ™ and Zoumana Tereta on вЂHow Dare YouвЂ™. I discovered the hunters, their songs and instruments from Mali on the Internet.В I really wanted the more traditional sounds and these musicians are playing traditional instruments. Have you been to Africa? How did these traditional African instruments and sounds come into your mind? вЂReal BluesвЂ™ is incorporating the vocals of blues legend LightninвЂ™ Hopkins and the participation of African musicians with a deep sound that I always did since Boulevard, but with traditional instruments from Mali. I tried to mix the two in the song вЂHow Dare YouвЂ™. One is coming from Africa and the other comes from the US. My favourite music is Blues for a long time. Was this a challenge for you to utilise different instruments and sounds? This new album, St Germain, has a very different sound to your earlier work. I wiped everything and started again with root musicians from Mali in 2011. The preparation of this album started in 2006, with the same European musicians. I produced an album for Soel, the trumpeter who plays on Tourist and on tour.

After that I needed to take a break from music. St Germain: After TouristвЂ™s release I did around 250 shows around the world during two and a half years.

Rachel Sibley: This is the first timeВ in fifteen yearsВ that youвЂ™ll be playing to an Australian audience, so what have you been up to in the meantime? Rachel Sibley picked his brain ahead of his arrival.
