Bombino

Back in 2012, Tuareg guitarist Bombino was brought over to Nashville by Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys to record his first album, 'Nomad', a funky fusion of traditional Berber sounds and American rock music. The record was a hit, topping several charts, and the gifted instrumentalist has since graduated to the World Music major league, playing alongside the likes of Amadou & Mariam and Gogol Bordello. Make sure to catch his one-off date in Beirut.
