Three years after the international success of his first blues album Salone released on the German label Moosicus / MIG Music, Bai Kamara Jr is back with Traveling Medicine Man, his new opus sprinkled with Afro-blues compositions delivered in his own unique style. In a descriptive, provocative and sometimes suggestive way, the stories of love, life and political convictions are meticulously explored by the storyteller.

A warm, funky voice, but equally sober and intimate. Bai Kamara Jr.'s music is a blend of Afro-blues, roots with soul and jazz influences.

Since the release of Salone in 2020, Bai Kamara Jr. has received excellent reviews from the international press. The album was nominated for a Blues Blast Music Award in the Acoustic Blues Album of the Year category. It was the only non-American nominee in all categories. For the making of Traveling Medicine Man (out March 3, 2023), Bai brought his band The Voodoo Sniffers into the studio; these exceptional musicians contributed to Bai's unique and ever-evolving style. With percussion at the heart of the arrangements, this rootsy blues is spiced with an Afro vibe that will make you want to get up and dance!
