Bombino: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

[@christophermiller194]

occasionally he hits one note that just sends shivers down my spine--subtle, light and sweet, mesmerizing and gorgeous.

[@alibahri1763]

only one note ? bro ! go down the touareg music rabbit hole and let me know :)

[@bobhunton8775]

I appreciate so much the camera's attention to Bombino's hands while he's playing. Guitarists like to be able to see (and be amazed) at what he's doing.

[@sahiljain2865]

Salaam to my brothers and their music. Love from India!

[@NGSVALENCIA]

The percussión orange thing dude is definitely feeling it.

[@gretelkogora4504]

Yes, true.

[@seancallahan603]

I actually saw them live recently and met him. Very talented guy and incredibly nice

[@gillesbourgeois5348]

It's a calebasse or kalabas . The Sahel bass drum.

[@kristinberg6681]

@Uraang Utaan 🙃

[@jacksonhalliwell7621]

Check out Takamba music.

[@eastwindbellydance2775]

The percussion instrument is a calabash, which is a gourd, like a squash or pumpkin. It's usually played with sticks and hands. I believe the guy playing it, is the drumset player for his band. I saw them at the High Sierra Music Festival last year, and they tore it up.

[@OurPerez]

He is a gem. I love his music and love the fact that he wears his traditional garb.

[@LaVictoria6751]

I love every sound, I hear. This amazing lyrics without really know what they mean. It's the magic of music, melody, rhythm and the tonality of his voice.

[@SamadArrjdal]

check out tinariwen , u gonna love em

[@ynysconvents4983]

i also dont know what it means

[@ynysconvents4983]

they should come to walloon

[@SoloNick]

This NPR right here should be as famous as Paak’s one. Bombino is the man.

[@Afrolucho]

Tuareg Artists are insanely talented. 🔥🔥🔥

[@TKanal3]

OFC NPR HAD BOMBINO ON. NPR is just such an mvp

[@frabber321]

Bombino is a piece of art for the people to see and hear! Saw him recently in Amsterdam. I am totally feeling the way he looks at his guitar with full emotion. One could argue music shouldn't be allowed to be made without such a deep connection and feeling.

[@jeremyacton4569]

Respect for the groove and the licks, Mr Bombino.

[@usfoofighter]

The Tiny Desk Concerts are fresh air from passionate artists that we as listeners would normally see or hear. Music speaks to us all.

[@khalilben4011]

such an underrated npr live session

[@danazic]

Bombino always puts me in a good mood. Much love from Agadez

[@ivoprata]

it wouldn't hurt putting up the artistic and technical list of people involved in each session...

[@jeremyacton4569]

I totally agree. ALL the musicians and tech folks should be acknowledged for their contribution.

True Sahara Heroo 💛

[@sword_tech]

Corey is the show

[@rikaettal4535]

AMAZIGH

[@ewauvwas]

The guy doing the beat on that instrument I don't know is looking so white! ;P

[@robertlewis5439]

The guy doing the beat is probably his longtime drummer, Corey Wilhelm.

[@ewauvwas]

+Robert Lewis I just mean that he looks so clumsy ;)

[@NoSheep2]

Kia Kaha!

[@aurelioequita]

lindo lindo!!

[@PheaDuch]

I see they kept the pumpkin instrument from the Tinariwen concert.

[@carakenio]

Omg this Bombino guy is really good,but the dude w/the black shirt is messing up the tempo of the songs by rushing them ,he needs a metronome !

[@josetato]

good god...you are right.

[@addsfsds]

Jose Luis Mendez Silva saw them live yesterday and the guys is simply great, he played the drums too, he was incredibly good!!!

[@adamdebesai]

carakenio They hate us cause they ain't us!

[@Sequistellam]

he is so clueless about this kind of music.. messed up the whole session

[@jesstowns10]

This is the second Bombino video I've had to turn off in two days because some white guy was fucking the rhythm up- and I'm a white guy. It must really drive the Africans and Latinos crazy!

[@alonewithalones]

BOMBINO, let me beat that basketball please? lol anyway nice music, feel good! n yea he's cute, looks a little shy too. :)

[@gretelkogora4504]

yes, he is shy because all of us love him and his guitar play.

[@CACOPHONIE]

[@mobugullu]
