Fronted by an African-Moroccan woman in a traditionally male role, Bab L’ Bluz 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.

Here is some of the great press that has been coming in for the album over the last few weeks:

“Healing music for troubled times”
★★★★ The Arts Desk

“A blast of low, guttural guembri, thumping drums with a slight stutter to the rhythm, a hint of overblown flute and sharp ululation.”
★★★★ Financial Times

“Raised consciousness guembri grooves and psych blues”
★★★★ MOJO
