East Bay Express, AFRICAN REBEL YELLS >>
Tuareg nomads once wandered the desert between Algeria and Mali, fighting a decades-long war for autonomy. One of their most powerful weapons was the music of Tinariwen, a group of young people who traded their Kalashnikovs for electric guitars to create a protest music influenced by Bob Marley, Bob Dylan, and Morocco's younger musicians. The result blends rock, blues, and traditional desert rhythms for a powerful trance-inducing sound that's at once ancient and modern. Tonight at SF's Great American Music Hall. $25, 8 p.m. 415-885-0750 or GAMH.com (j. poet) 07/13/05 >> go there
