Bombino

Few have wielded the guitar with such mastery and majesty” – The New York Times

GRAMMY-nominated guitar virtuoso Bombino returns to London for a ground-shaking headline show at Islington Assembly Hall!

Hailed as the “Sultan of Shred,” Bombino blends traditional Saharan rhythms with rock, blues, and reggae, crafting hypnotic, high-energy performances that transport audiences straight to the heart of the desert. His virtuosic guitar work, soulful vocals, and driving grooves have earned him comparisons to legends like Jimi Hendrix and Ali Farka Touré.

After last year’s sold-out performance at EartH Theatre, it’s clear London’s love for Bombino’s particular blend of desert blues runs deep.
