this is the way
people from Niger are referred to as “Nigerien” and not “Nigerian” as the latter refers to someone from Nigeria.
Pedantry corner: NigeriEn.
French band name is a dead giveaway.
Ooh nice! Great stuff to add to my listening pleasure other than Mdou Moctar.

Is that really them? Must be a studio recording over the video. I dig it, though.
For a similar feel look up Tinariwen.
what is ass desert blues?
A Story of Sahel Sounds is great for anyone interested.
Try some Ali Farka Touré also

This fantastic!
So sick, reminds me a bit of [Mdou Moctar](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pqvY9Oh0tQ).
I’ve found Western rock has gotten stale once again but African rock/funk/blues hasn’t.
Nice! Here’s the Spotify link https://open.spotify.com/artist/1Tj92mXFtSUJPPnT5fG4Gg?si=EWMQOgwGTrKw9x6BpZS_tw
I really recommend the video from Bandsplaining about the desert blues scene:
