TIGUE at 160 Mass Ave

About

Percussion trio Tigue, last seen on "Stave Sessions" in 2017 with neo-traditional Brooklyn-based Moroccan ensemble Innov Gnawa, again partner with an artist reinventing traditional musical forms in an entirely contemporary way. Pakistan-born, Berklee-educated, and Brooklyn-based neo-Sufi singer Arooj Aftab brings a new approach to old forms, merging 19th-century Sufi and Thumri verse with the instrumentation and spirit of independent rock. See them in concert at 160 Mass Ave.
