Jon The Reptilian recently sat down with Nigerien guitarist, singer, and bandleader, Mdou Moctar, when his group toured through the Bay Area this past October. Tune in on Friday, December 20th at 1pm to hear their conversation.
Latest album, Funeral for Justice was recorded at the close of two years spent touring the globe following the release of 2021 breakout Afrique Victime, it captures the Nigerien quartet in ferocious form. The music is louder, faster, and more wild. The guitar solos are feedback-scorched and the lyrics are passionately political. Nothing is held back or toned down.
