Concert Pick: Tinariwen at the Prince Music Theater

From the Sahara to Center City.

The Tuareg desert blues band Tinariwen plays the Prince Music Theater on Friday.

"Toumast Tincha," the lead single from the Saharan guitar band's new album, Emmaar, which was recorded in the town of Joshua Tree in the Mojave desert in California, is below. Saul Williams handles the spoken intro.

My interview with bass player Eyadou Ag Leche from Thursday's Inquirer is here.  I snapped the blurry photo below of the band last week at SXSW in Austin, Texas. Ticket info is here
