Legendary guitar-poets release their long-awaited follow up to the award winning 'Aman Iman: Water Is Life'. 'Imidiwan: Companions', is vintage Tinariwen: raw, defiant, fragile and uncompromisingly real. The CD is accompanied by a short film by French filmaker jessey Nottola. Imidiwan reaffirms Tinariwen's global status as one of the most popular and significant groups to have come out of West Africa.
