Their name means ‘the knot, junction or coalition’, a reference to the fact that the members hail from different regions. Their music is a fusion or guitar-based rock with elements of ethno that could be called desert urban blues. The band is topping the music charts and being praised in various music magazines from all over the world.In the past, Mali offered loads of excellent musicians, such as Ali Farka Touré, Amadou & Mariam, Salif Keita, Habib Koité and Tinariwen. Still, Tamikrest’s music is outstandingly good and their performances give you the feeling you are listening to songs, older than the Rolling Stones or John Lee Hooker. While listening to rock & roll at its origin, you will drift into the stratosphere, that we can promise. LOCATION:Jazzlent ORGANIZER;CN="INFOND": END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
