We welcome seminal Desert Blues masters Terakaft back to Rich Mix for another rare UK performance at Bethnal Green's Rich Mix.
Their new album ‘Alone’, produced by Justin Adams, has a rockier sound and an angrier tone, fuelled by bloody events in northern Mali.Formed in 2001 and hailing from Kidal, Mali, Terakaft are a genuine Tuareg desert rock band sculpted by the desert, weathered, dusty and relentless. Through pulsating guitars rhythms and powerful, mournful vocals.
Terakaft means ‘Caravan’ and these captivating nomads tread the earth never settling in one place for too long. Catch them while you can!
Joining Terakaft on the night is tuvan ledgend SAINKHO NAMTCHYLAK. Sainkho recoreded her album with Eyadou Ag Leche and Said Ag Ayad both members of Terakaft and Tiniriwen and managed to create a sound that is completely original and also ullertly etherial.
Reviews of our sell out April Show:

– AAA
Praise for ‘Alone’:
“Rockier, angrier, irresistible” – ⭑⭑⭑⭑ – The Guardian
