About SoribaIbrahima “Soriba” Fofana was born and raised in the vibrant city of Conakry, located in Guinea, West Africa where he was immersed in the rich cultural tapestry of drummers, dancers, and musicians.
His early experiences were shaped by the ancient Manding music of his homeland, where he studied under the guidance of his esteemed mentors, mastering the djembe and dundun drums, traditional songs and music.
In 2009, Soriba made the transformative journey to the United States, where he has since dedicated himself to teaching and performing throughout the US and internationally.
Soriba strives to preserve and revitalise the rich musical heritage of Guinea. His performances are not just artistic expressions; they are a celebration of life, community, and the enduring power of music to connect people across different backgrounds. Soriba continues to honour the legacy of his ancestors while inspiring future generations.
