Brahim Fribgane is fast establishing himself as a major force in the music scene today. A remarkably creative and diverse musician, Brahim takes the doumbek to new levels, expressing the rhythmic complexities of a drum set with this one instrument. He alternately blends and contrasts rhythms while at the same time keeping his listeners and fellow musicians rhythmically secure.
Born and raised in Morocco, Brahim Fribgane brings to his music the rich and varied musical styles he grew up with - North African, Gnawa, Berber, Arabic and Andulusian music.
His oud style ranges from the clear, "singable" melodies of folkloric Berber songs to beautifully complex and soulful Arabic music, to the fusion of jazz, samba, reggae or Indian music.
