Tuareg musician Bombino from Agadez, Niger performs with his band at the foot of the ancient Grande Mosque attended by close to a thousand people. At the edge of the Sahara Desert, Agadez has been cut off from the rest of the world due rebellions and floods for three years. This concert gave Agadez a chance to celebrate its culture and heritage, ushering in a new generation of Tuareg. A new double CD, feature documentary "Agadez, the Music and the Rebellion" and world tour are planned for 2011. For more info go to: zerogravityfilms.com
