I’m here and I don’t know why
Stranded to stare up at unknown skies
Sleeping in a night club in Bristol town
Steeling myself for the cold coming round
Hopped on an eastbound train
Leapt out at the place that called my name
Set up at the campground with others living on the edge
For a warm blanket traded a carton of cigarettes
listen to the sound of the trees whispering
telling me stay close to the fire flickering
listen to the sound of the trees surrounding
my soul telling me to fear nothing
Like a Tirailleur
Satchel on my back, Gaspard gave me a tent
And a hot water bottle for this winter of my discontent
Made glorious summer when I tried my luck
Singing tunes to passers-by for a buck
Hustling for work with my needle and thread
Picking up gigs whenever I could for the rent
Met a girl, tied the knot and we went on the road
And when the baby came I had to make good
listen to the sound of the trees whispering
telling me stay close to the fire flickering
listen to the sound of the trees surrounding
my soul telling me to fear nothing
Like a Tirailleur

Touki
Who would have thought that a chance busking encounter in the streets of Bath in 2007 would lead to a new musical adventure in 2020? Amadou Diagne from Senegal and French-American Cory Seznec hit it off that Spring day years ago, planting the seeds of a future collaboration in their minds with musical inspirations drawing from West African, American, and Ethiopian traditions. ... more
