Bombino: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
ฝัง

- There's something alluring and charming about Bombino, whose childlike face belies his fierce, hypnotic guitar playing. The first time I saw him perform, I found myself screaming his name at the end of every song - partly to praise his amazing jams, but also as an exercise in bonding. It felt as if I were yelling out to a buddy on stage, even though I'd never met him. I just felt a connection; his sound is that personable and familiar.
Omara "Bombino" Moctar is a Tuareg guitarist, born in Niger. The familiarity in his music stems from the blues, a common thread between American music and Africa for obvious reasons. Bombino grew up on the music of Jimi Hendrix, whose sound keeps getting sent back and forth from America to Africa and back again. The American blues-rock duo The Black Keys must have heard this upon listening to Bombino; guitarist Dan Auerbach went on to produce Nomad, Bombino's new album. But there's also an innocence to Bombino, and a sense of simple, honest discovery that shows up in his smile as he plays. You may find yourself screaming his name, too, after watching this performance. --BOB BOILEN

occasionally he hits one note that just sends shivers down my spine--subtle, light and sweet, mesmerizing and gorgeous.

I appreciate so much the camera's attention to Bombino's hands while he's playing. Guitarists like to be able to see (and be amazed) at what he's doing.
The percussión orange thing dude is definitely feeling it.
Yes, true.
I actually saw them live recently and met him. Very talented guy and incredibly nice
It's a calebasse or kalabas . The Sahel bass drum.
@Uraang Utaan 🙃
Check out Takamba music.
Salaam to my brothers and their music. Love from India!
He is a gem. I love his music and love the fact that he wears his traditional garb.
The percussion instrument is a calabash, which is a gourd, like a squash or pumpkin.
It's usually played with sticks and hands.
I believe the guy playing it, is the drumset player for his band. I saw them at the High Sierra Music Festival last year, and they tore it up.
Tuareg Artists are insanely talented. 🔥🔥🔥
This NPR right here should be as famous as Paak’s one. Bombino is the man.
From a vast desert to a tiny desk !
sand fills.
I love every sound, I hear. This amazing lyrics without really know what they mean. It's the magic of music, melody, rhythm and the tonality of his voice.
check out tinariwen , u gonna love em
i also dont know what it means
they should come to walloon
it wouldn't hurt putting up the artistic and technical list of people involved in each session...
I totally agree. ALL the musicians and tech folks should be acknowledged for their contribution.
Rigging Gaffers Unite!
Berber man strong
Respect for the groove and the licks, Mr Bombino.
OFC NPR HAD BOMBINO ON. NPR is just such an mvp
such an underrated npr live session
He is now one of my favorite artists. Thank you
Do you still listen to his music?
@@juberlingeri are you spect amazigh people
The Tiny Desk Concerts are fresh air from passionate artists that we as listeners would normally see or hear. Music speaks to us all.
Bombino always puts me in a good mood. Much love from Agadez
Bombino is a piece of art for the people to see and hear! Saw him recently in Amsterdam. I am totally feeling the way he looks at his guitar with full emotion. One could argue music shouldn't be allowed to be made without such a deep connection and feeling.
he is amazing !!!
bombino and tinariwen = desert magic
Don't forget Mdou !
and tamikrest ;)
No less than AMAZING! Love it. Groovy

Check out Sona Jobarteh, th-cam.com/video/Ig91Z0-rBfo/w-d-xo.html, if you want to hear more of the calabash.
His guitar reminds me of Neil Young more so than Jimi. He's definitely got a nice groove.
