Adagh

Tamikrest is currently one of the hottest acts in "world" music today. Though their music takes root in Ishumar Rock or Touareg Blues, it borrows from various international influences as well as from neighbouring cultures. Tamikrest in Tamasheq language means junction, connection, knot, coalition. The group members come from different horizons (Mali, Niger, Algeria). Wanting to assume fully their Touareg identity, they found in the rebel music Ishumar the means to express it. Part of a new generation of Saharan guitar bands emerging from the nomadic Touareg community, singing about their struggles, suffering and hopes in the Tamasheq language. This African blues rock has inevitable echoes of the loping, rhythmic guitar style of the now-massive Tinariwen.
