Malian musical duo Amadou & Mariam, tend to make their annual journey to the US during the summer to play a number of festival dates and some club gigs. Having played Summerstage in year, this year A&M are crossing the river to play a show on June 21 at Celebrate Brooklyn!. They are still touring in support their 2012 full length, Folila, but they also just released a new EP in April entitled Mali meets Latin America Remix EP.
