SUMMARY:Bombino
DESCRIPTION:Born in 1980 in a nomadic Tuareg encampment just outside Agadez in Niger\, Bombino (born Goumour Almoctar\, also known as Oumara Moctar) came of age during much political upheaval\, fleeing with his family to Algeria by 1990\, and teaching himself guitar by watching videos of Jimi Hendrix\, Dire Straits\, Ali Farka Toure and Tinariwen. His performances showcase evocative rhythms\, captivating vocals\, and awe-inspiring guitar playing that led the New York Times calling him “the Sultan of Shred”. The first-ever artist from Niger to receive a Grammy nomination (Best World Music Album in 2018)\, Bombino manages to fuse traditional Berber rhythms with stunning rock n roll and songs about peace in the Sahel. A rare chance to see a rare talent.
