The world considers the Sahara to be a hot desert, a breeding ground for religious extremism and terrorists. Omara ‘Bombino’ Moctar would like to change our minds. The most important theme of Deran, his sixth Grammy-nominated album, is his home in the desert. How should we protect, develop, respect and, above all, never forget this special place?

He combines western blues and rock music with authentic African and Arabic rhythms and Caribbean sounds such as reggae in a masterly way. The result is a combination of raw desert blues and virtuoso guitar work. This renowned artist from Niger is a kindred spirit of Tinariwen, the world-famous Tuareg group from neighbouring Mali.
