Sorie Kondi, Sierra Leone’s famous blind kondi player, is in many ways the country’s Stevie Wonder (although not rich or internationally famous).
He is a household name in his native land where he taught himself to play the kondi instrument at an early age, and due to his prowess and ingenuity in playing the instrument, earned the name, Sorie Kondi.
