Bio
quickly became the U.K's leading Guembri playing after arriving in the country 4 years ago. Bringing tales of ancient Gnawa wisdom from Sub-saharan Africa (which moved into Morocco hundreds of years ago) in a traditional music which opens a door to the spiritual world, and invokes a trance state in receptive listeners. He has already played at some great venues including Momo London, Momo Dubai, Kuwait Cyprus,Victoria and Albert museum, Glastonbury festival 2011. He recently appeared on BBC Radio 6Music. To watch Simo on stage is not just any performance, it is a visually exiting show, of dance, colour, technique, unique vocals, and a spiritually uplifting experience. His fusion band is 'Electric Jalaba' who's music involves the traditional gnawa songs weaved amongst enormous infectious grooves! Expect inexhaustible energy, moments of soulful calm and pinnacles of ecstatic mayhem. .. ..
