AMP Concerts presents Bab L'Bluz

AMP Concerts is bringing Bab’Bluz to FUSION | 708 on Wednesday, April 8, at 7:30 PM (Doors at 6:30 PM).

Bab L' Bluz are reclaiming the blues for North Africa. Fronted by an African-Moroccan woman in a traditionally male role, the band are devoted to a revolution in attitude which dovetails with Morocco's "nayda" youth movement—a new wave of artists and musicians taking their cues from local heritage, singing words of freedom in the Moroccan-Arabic dialect of darija. Ancient and current, funky and rhythmic, buoyed by Arabic lyrics, soaring vocals and bass-heavy grooves, their music seems to pulse from the heart of the Maghreb.

"This transcontinental quartet creates rollicking, headbanging music. Somewhere in the mix, you will find the hypnotic loops of Gnawa religious music, poetry from the Sahara and the reckless abandon of fuzz rock and blues. And every listen reveals a little more."
—The New York Times
