Daughter and wife of musician, Dee Dee Bridgewater grew up with the jazz and the black American music. Today, this same music has brought her until the crossing with Mandingue music, the traditional Malian music. This musical travel is also a spiritual journey and a search for her roots. The journey starts in Mali with the encounter of Malian musicians, then goes through Paris for the concerts rehearsals, and eventually end in Bamako for the recording of the album.
