Deran

Product Description

'Deran' is the new full-length album from Niger-born Tuareg guitar virtuoso, Bombino. 'Deran' – which loosely translates to "best wishes" – is Bombino's most focused, compelling, and diverse statement to date.
 
The white-hot lead track 'Tehigren' premiered via Vice Noisey, who called Bombino "the world's best guitarist."

Written and sung entirely in Bombino's native language of Tamasheq, Deran was recorded in Casablanca – at a studio owned by current Moroccan King Mohammed VI, no less - over a ten day stretch, and marks his first time making an album in Africa in nearly a decade.  Across ten tracks, the album showcases Bombino's mastery of a rich palette - from folk, rock, blues, funk, and of course the 'Tuareggae' sub-genre which he has single-handedly pioneered.
