Bombino at the Vic Event Centre
Written by CFUV Communications on 04/20/2012
On Sunday April 22nd, performing artist Bombino will be in Victoria. Omara “Bombino” Moctar, a young Tuareg guitarist and songwriter, was raised during an era of armed struggles for independence and violent suppression by government forces. His electrifying jams capture the spirit of resistance and rebellion while echoing with guitar riffs reminiscent of fellow Africans Tinariwen and Ali Farka Touré not to mention rock and blues icons such as Jimi Hendrix.
The concert is at the Victoria Event Centre (1415 Broad st). Make sure to reserve tickets as space is limited at this venue. For ticket info visit brownpapertickets.com, Ditch Records or the Victoria Event Centre online.
