  • Still as good as 17 years ago!

    by Shar on 3/27/239:30 CLUB - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    Mariam & Amadou are still as vibrant as they were when I saw them in 2006. They haven't lost their tone or range as a lot of older singer/songwriters (hey, they're my age, so I can say that!). I was in the very front row, and it was amazing to see them and there band up close like that. It was impossible to stand still, and I danced for 2.5 hours. The band was also dynamic and looked like they really enjoyed playing with Mariam & Amadou. The 9:30 Club was also really fun, and it was a great experience all the way around. Love and good health to Mariam & Amadou!

  • Best Live Performance Ever

    Amadou & Mariam were absolutely incredible live. Would see them perform everyday if I could

  • Amazing show!

    They are amazing performers — and I couldn’t even understand most of what they were saying since I don’t speak French!

  • A total blast

    What an awesome show from start to finish. My high school French was not enough to understand almost anything they said (although clearly most of the audience was Francophone), but it didnt matter - they were so full of energy, artistry and love. Do NOT miss the chance to see this couple.

  • Amadou and Mariam ROCK! Don't question, just go.

    by Genevive42 on 7/14/13The Fonda Theatre - HollywoodRating: 5 out of 5

    I've seen them perform four or five times over the years and they're always awesome. The band loves what they're doing and seem to have a lot of fun. And while I have every album, they bring so much more to their live shows. The solo sections get bigger and rock more, a little competition between band members to see who can outplay the other, (without drifting so far you forget what song they're on).They need to make a concert dvd to get even close to showing you what I mean. There is so much energy on the stage it's incredible. And the musicianship is fantastic. This will be one of the best shows you'll ever see.

  • Amazing night of dance, laughter and smiles!

    by NCRice on 7/11/13The Fonda Theater - HollywoodRating: 5 out of 5

    I absolutely 100 percent enjoyed Amadou & Mariam's performance. I loved that they played a long set and you could just feel their soul in the music! Truly magnificent. Can't wait to see them again and dance the night away.

  • Amadou and Mariam out of this world.

    by SoDo on 7/1/13Paradise Rock Club - BostonRating: 5 out of 5

    A&M were mesmerizing performers. We were dancing from start to finish and their music actually transported us to the Mali they sang about.

    The gig was great, once it started. Why if someone says they are going to be on stage at 9pm do they not start until 10pm. Especially with no support band this just seems disrespectful to the fans.

  • An utterly transporting show.

    by GattoNero on 6/24/13Paradise Rock Club - BostonRating: 5 out of 5

    Amadou and Mariam played a thrilling and ecstatic two-hour set, backed by bass, drums, and percussion of the highest order. Lots of lively interplay between Amadou -- with his gorgeous, goldspun guitar lines -- and the propulsive rhythm section. One of the most emotionally satisfying shows I have ever been privileged to see. A&M are true treasures.

    This music was absolutely wonderful. I had never seen them live before, and even though I did not understand the words, it was definitely worth the ticket.
