Biography
Niang Mahmoud Tété (born 25 July 1975) is a French musician. His mother is from Martinique and his father is from Senegal.
Tété is described as the French version of Jeff Buckley. Tété's music can be described as an intimate, solo classical guitar musical style. He defines himself to be a "troubadour and manufacturer of pop-folk-bluesy songs with intellectual pretensions." His music combines blues, folk and pop influences, such as the Delta blues, Lenny Kravitz, the Beatles and Bob Dylan.
