PRAx Presents: Seffarine: Abaraz
An evocative journey into the heart of Mhamid — a small oasis town in southern Morocco — Abaraz explores the captivating rhythms and melodies that have echoed through the desert sands of North Africa for centuries. Expect hypnotic Saharan beats, haunting desert blues, Gnawa basslines and compelling stories, all brought to life by the vocals of Lamiae Naki. Drawing on her family’s roots in the region, Naki and the Seffarine ensemble celebrate the enduring spirit and cultural wealth of Mhamid — a town threatened by climate change even as it holds a profound musical legacy.
