- Wednesday 8 March, 2023
- $50 – $60 + BF

Prodigious Tuareg guitarist and songwriter Mdou Moctar fits the BMF bill perfectly, with an electric performance that boldly reforges contemporary Saharan music by melding Eddie Van Halen pyrotechnics, Hendrix inspired shredding, and poetic meditations on love, religion, women’s rights, inequality and Western Africa’s exploitation at the hands of colonial powers.
