Split Works 开功 呈现： BOMBINO 中国巡演

“即正统又富有野心，他是沙漠布鲁斯的完美传人。” - Pitchfork

“Ali Farka Touré与Carlos Santana, Mark Knopfler, 电声Jerry Garcia和原声Jerry Garcia的合体；Bombino宛若有千手千面。” - The New York Times

从广袤的西撒哈拉挑选一人，赐予他一副让人难忘的、如蜜糖又如风沙般的嗓子和已臻化境的吉他演奏技巧，然后让他经历叛乱、战争、沙漠、饥荒、暴行和无可依凭的生活等诸多磨难的洗礼——所有这一切会结出怎样的果实？Bombino给出了他的回答：贯通布鲁斯、爵士、雷鬼、非洲节拍乐与西非节奏的绝妙旋律；反映着图阿雷格游民部落的传奇音乐故事。

Bombino的音乐在乱世中得以存在，在某种意义上已是一种奇迹；而得以现场观看他的演出——在我们这个不安的时代中，亲眼见证音乐所拥有的积极力量——则真可谓是天赐的福祉。

Split Works荣誉呈现Bombino五城巡演——12月10日周日，上海（上海交响乐团）；12月12日，北京（愚公移山）；12月13日，长沙（VOX）；12月14日，深圳（B10），12月15日，广州（191 Space）。

这位来自西撒哈拉、前途无量的吉他英雄（同时也是Dire Straits乐队的超级乐迷）是声音与灵魂的完美交融体。

Bombino的早期生活充满了太多太多故事，是一段不折不扣的苦难史。直到2006年前往美国与滚石乐队的Keith Richards和Charlie Watts共同录音，生活才终于为26岁的他打开了一道富有希望的音乐之门。

同年晚些时候，Bombino作为Angelina Jolie的向导带她游览了尼日尔沙漠，并在期间为她演奏图阿雷格音乐。凭借着自己录制的一系列磁带专辑，他逐渐成为了这个地区值得关注的音乐人之一。这些自制磁带的其中一盘引起了电影人Ron Wyman的注意，他在2009年不远万里找到Bombino；而正是这次会面促成了专辑《Agadez》的诞生——一部将Bombino的名字正式写入世界音乐版图的杰作。

2013年Bombino发布了专辑《Nomad》。这张专辑由格莱美最佳制作人奖（非古典类）得主，The Black Keys乐队的Dan Auerbach制作完成，在面世后便一举抢占了“公告牌(Billboard)世界音乐专辑榜”与“iTunes世界音乐榜”两个榜单的头把交椅。理所应当的，Bombino在随后的世界巡回演出中大获成功，取得了赞誉无数。3年后，Bombino卷土重来更进一步；他与制作人Dave Longstreth（Dirty Projectors乐队成员）合作，带来了一张即延续传统又同时打破传统的佳作《Azel》。在这张专辑中Bombino的才华与野心得到了进一步展现，他的撒哈拉灵魂与西方音乐血液激烈碰撞，为2016年带来了这张足以载入史册的经典唱片。

有幸能将Bombino带来中国，带到大家身边，我们的兴奋之情溢于言表。当图阿雷格的4000年历史曼妙萦绕在他的6弦之间；当撒哈拉的热情扑面而来——我们衷心希望，你们能在现场见证这一音乐的奇迹。

Split Works Presents:
BOMBINO

“A sublime iteration of the desert blues that’s both authentic and ambitious." – Pitchfork 

“Ali Farka Touré [meets] Carlos Santana, Mark Knopfler, Jerry Garcia electric and Jerry Garcia acoustic. Bombino is never just one thing.” – The New York Times

Take a man from the Western Sahara.
 
Give him a mesmerizing “honey-and-sand” voice, and a virtuoso skill with the guitar.
 
That Bombino’s music even exists is nothing short of a miracle, and to see him live is to witness the power of music in our uncertain times. After Vieux Farka Toure and TINARIWEN, we’re excited to present a China debut for Niger’s own rock’n’roll hero in collaboration with the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra (SSO). 

Five city tour. Sun Dec 10 in Shanghai (Shanghai Symphony Orchestra), followed by Beijing (Dec 12, Yugong Yishan), Changsha (Dec 13, VOX) , Shenzhen (Dec 14, B10) and Guangzhou (Dec 15, 191 Space). 

His early life is the stuff of a thousand tales, and an extraordinary journey through hardships and strife. His musical breakthrough came in 2006, when a 26-year old Bombino traveled to the U.S. to record a session (with The Rolling Stones' Keith Richards and Charlie Watts, no less). 

Later that year, Bombino served as Angelina Jolie’s guide to the Niger desert region, playing her the music of the Tuareg. His self-recorded cassette tapes were beginning to mark him as a musical name to watch in the region. One of these tapes got the attention of filmmaker Ron Wyman, who traveled to meet Bombino in 2009 – a meeting that resulted in the album that put him on the map - Agadez.

In 2013, Bombino released Nomad, produced by the Grammy Award-winning Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys. It debuted at #1 on the Billboard World Music album chart and iTunes World charts, paving the way for a string of global tours and universal acclaim. 2016 saw the follow-up Azel, produced by Dave Longstreth of the Dirty Projectors. It’s Bombino's best, most well-rounded, and groundbreaking album to date.

We’re excited beyond words to present Bombino in China. Four thousand years of Tuareg culture ring through his six-strings. Join us for a trip into history, and into the desert sands.
