Former Zap Mama vocalist Sally Nyolo has a new album titled Tiger Run, scheduled for release on September 29, 2014. Together with Cameroonian traditional influences, the album will feature French pop.

Nyolo’s sound is characterized by bikutsi, a Cameroonian traditional and urban style with6/8 rhythms and female-led vocal choruses. On Tiger Run, Sally is joined by Ivorian jazz-fusion drummer Paco Séry and bass guitarist Papus Diabaté (son of the famous Malian guitarist Zani Diabaté). Soprano Nathalie Leonoff appears on ‘Le Faiseur De Pluie Par Tous Les Temps’, achieving Sally’s longheld dream of working with an opera singer. Bantu bluesman Jo N’Gala adds percussion on ‘Tiger Run’ and ‘Elle Regarde Passer’.

Previous Recordings include Tribu, La Nuit a Febe, Memoire Du Monde, Studio Cameroon, Multiculti, Zaione, and Beti.
