Bombino Deran Vinyl

“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.

Bombino has played festivals all over the world including: Bonnaroo,  Art Rock, Citadel, Desert Daze, ACL, Golden Plains, Best Kept Secret, Coachella, New Orleans Jazz Fest, The Newport Folk Festival, WOMAD
