Omara "Bombino" Moctar, whose given name is Goumar Almoctar, was born on January 1st, 1980 in Tidene, Niger, an encampment of nomadic Tuaregs located about 80 kilometers to the northeast of Agadez. He is a member of the Ifoghas tribe, which belongs to the Kel Air Tuareg federation.
Led by Tuareg guitarist Omara Bombino Moctar, the band blends the traditional Sahara Desert music of the Tuareg people with Western blues and rock influences. Their latest record, 2013’s Nomad, was produced by The Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach.
Listening to a few conversations in the queue before the doors opened it appeared there were a quite a number of attendees with little or no knowledge of the music of Omara Moctar, otherwise known as Bombino.
