Moussa Diakite is a renowned guitarist, singer and composer from Mali, now based in Sydney. From 1979 - 1983 he played with the iconic Afro-Latin Super Rail Band combining elements of Cuban and Congolese Jazz with West African music. Moussa also played with Grammy-winning Kora player, Toumani Diabate, before joining Salif Kieta's live band and joining him on multiple World Tours. Since settling in Australia he has played many major festivals and his most recent album 'Kanafo' is a career highlight. “An A-list axeman in West Africa, performing in seminal collectives such as the Super Rail Band and as sideman to legendary compatriots Salif Keita and Toumani Diabate. His unique Malian-styled guitar playing — informed by the Wassoulou traditions of the country’s southwest — has since been influential in the development of Australia’s African music scene, via Badema, Keyim Ba, Chosani Afrique and similar bands” - Tony Hillier - The Australian
