Daby Touré, a rising West African star currently based in Paris, has released a new 6-track album, Call My Name, a collaboration with American bluesman Skip McDonald.  The album is available digital-only in the U.S. and on CD in the U.K. on Real World Records.  The album features songs by Touré and McDonald which highlight the interplay between McDonald's weighty guitar grooves and resonant English vocals and Touré's lighter, more freewheeling musicality and agile multilingual singing.  Daby, a member of a musical dynasty forged on the banks of the Senegal River - and the artist behind Real World albums Diam and Stereo Spirit, is forever seeking fresh sounds and innovative ways of applying them. "All the music I picked up when I was young is still in me and that doesn't change. But in my music I am still searching, and mixing, and trying new things. I am African but I am also European."

In support of this disc, Daby Toure will be touring North America in July and August.
