Gibralter 10/25
Gibralter is a North African band from Algeria and Morocco. The music is influenced by the different ethnic groups that live in the region. Gibraltar's music is not restricted to one genre, and the styles of music cross every border that the band members crossed in their paths. From the coast of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic to the deserts of the Sahara, Gibraltar blends the sounds, dances, and trances of their region into their own style. They play both familiar and unusual instruments.Growing up in North Africa as Berbers, Kamel, Abdel and Hacene were exposed to different languages (Berber, Arabic, French, English and Spanish) and consequently to different types of music such as rock, blues, jazz, traditional Berber, gypsy, French, rai, and chaabi (popular North African).
On stage, Gibraltar sings in all these languages and the repertoire varies between rumba, reggae, gnawi, rai and Berber songs. The variety keeps the music rich and audiences more attracted and interested.
