Hervé Samb & Teranga Band

In the organizer's words:

On June 25, the internationally acclaimed guitarist and composer Hervé Samb and his Teranga Band will bring a rousing mix of jazz, Afro-funk, soul and West African rhythms to Hanover. Hervé Samb is one of the most innovative musicians on the African jazz scene. Born in Senegal and traveling worldwide, he combines virtuoso guitar playing with deeply rooted African traditions and modern grooves. His music stands for openness, joy of playing and musical excellence - powerful, danceable and at the same time full of subtlety. The Teranga Band - named after the Senegalese word for hospitality - stands for exactly that: musical encounters at the highest level. Together they create a live experience that transcends genre boundaries and gets audiences and musicians alike moving. An evening full of energy, groove and musical diversity - Hervé Samb & The Teranga Band live in Hanover. Not to be missed!
