Lafayette: Tinariwen at Festival International 2014

 
Tinariwen, Festival International, Lafayette, Louisiana. April 2014.

The headliner of the 2014 Festival International, in my mind, was Tinariwen.

Phil in the Blank turned me on to this Tuareg group a few years ago.

The only disappointment was that the group's woman singers did not accompany the group to the festival.

I loved watching this man dance to the music:

Here is a story NPR did on Tinariwen in February 2014.

I like the trance-like zone of the music.
