He probably calls himself Bombino, because in his first band, he was really the “bambino”. Now, singer and guitarist, Omar Moctar from Niger, has become one of the truly great. His Tuareg rock which he has just extended to Tuareggae, is magical, his shows are overwhelming, and his guitar skills invite comparison with Jimi Hendrix, Carlos Santana, Neil Young and Jerry Garcia.
