Abdul and The Gang mix chaabi music, gnawa rhythms and funk. Eight musicians will transport you to the desert and far-west to accompany the Arabic songs of Abdul (Abu Ben Salem). They have concocted a new sound from the East, the Maghreb, chaabi melodies and gnawas rhythms, and combines them with the groove and arrangements of funk or afrobeats. From this mix of genres, Gnawa Funk is born.
