Experience the mesmerizing Gnawa music of Asmâa Hamzaoui & Bnat Timbouktou, a groundbreaking all-female group from Casablanca. Traditionally reserved for men, Gnawa music's deep roots trace back centuries to rituals and stories of suffering and slavery in North Africa. Asmâa, raised in a family of musicians and dancers, has become one of the leading female figures in the genre. Her rich guembri riffs, accompanied by the rhythmic qraqeb (metal castanets) and powerful call-and-response vocals, will transport you into a hypnotic world of sound. Having collaborated with Swedish label Ajabu! Records, their debut album Oulad Lghaba and follow-up L'Bnat have garnered international acclaim. Join us for this unforgettable performance!
Doors open at 18:30, concert starts at 19:00. Free entry. Organized in collaboration with Kulturhuset Bergsjön.
