Don’t miss your chance to hear authentic subsaharan rock and roll in downtown Gainesville! Etran de L’Aïr play in a pan-African style that is emblematic of their hometown, Agadez, citing a myriad of cultural influences, from Northern Malian blues, Hausa bar bands, to Congolese Soukous. Their music is rooted in celebration, and invokes the exuberance of an Agadez wedding, with an overwhelming abundance of guitars, as simultaneous solos playfully pass over one another with a restrained precision, forceful yet never overindulgent. They will be joined by Rich Ruth.
