Boubé

Born in Niger, Boubé grew up in the village of Iferouane (on the edge of the Ténéré desert) which hosts the most important Tuareg music festival. It is in the hypnotic atmosphere of this village, nestled at the foot of the Tamgak mountains that Boubé learned music. He sings and plays several instruments characteristic of Tuareg music, a style known internationally as "desert blues" and sung by the Berber nomads of the central Sahara. A self-taught musician, he already went on tour at the age of 13 with different African groups. Then, in 2012-2013, he accompanied the internationally renowned artist Bombino as a percussionist and drummer. In 2013-2014, he joined the group Mdou Moctar for a tour taking them to several countries.

Boubé handles the guitar and drums wonderfully. His music speaks of peace, friendship and always inspires travel. His melodies, sometimes more meditative, sometimes more rock, leave no one indifferent. Some call him the "Jimi Hendrix of the Sahara" because of his passion on stage. His unique, virtuoso and heartfelt guitar playing combined with his legendary charisma make each of Boubé's concerts a meditative experience in itself.
