來自撒哈拉沙漠的搖滾藍調樂隊塔里溫，是一群以電結他為武器的戰士，憑清澈圓潤的結他聲，從沙漠走上世界舞台。

1979年，塔里溫的領軍人物 Ibrahim Ag Alhabib 在圖阿雷格族沙漠游擊隊中組成這支樂隊。於動亂流離與戰爭中成長，他們的音樂結合了現代結他演奏與古老的非洲旋律，歌詞反映沙漠牧民生涯與當代政治風雲，形成絕無僅有的沙漠藍調音樂。

塔里溫曾在 Glastonbury、Roskilde、WOMAD 等各大音樂節中吟唱，並獲得BBC世界音樂大獎（2005）。樂隊的第四張大碟《Imidiwan》更力壓Bob Dylan 等巨星，贏得2009年《Uncut》音樂大獎的最佳大碟殊榮。

The Sahara’s coolest rock band

“Uplifting, moving, entrancing and, above all, life-affirming” The Sun (UK)

“Dusty, wild and wonderful” Mojo

From the depths of the Sahara desert comes the band that is rocking music festival stages today with its infectious guitar rhythms, haunting vocals and distinct sound that capture the history and geography of North Africa.

Formed in 1979 by legendary guitarist and singer Ibrahim Ag Alhabib, this band of Tuareg nomads-turned-rock musicians forged their music in exile from their homeland of Mali, resulting in songs that sing of the longing for lost homes and families, the struggle for political and cultural freedom, and the rigours of everyday life in the desert.

With their music fast becoming the soundtrack for a whole generation of exiled Touareg youth, Tinariwen has won worldwide recognition, bagging the BBC World Music Award in 2005 and gaining fans and collaborators such as Robert Plant and Carlos Santana.
