Lin Cortés from Cordoba and Saad Tiouly from Morocco have many things in common. Both are unconventional, hard to classify into any specific category and unpredictable. It is very difficult to pin them down. They are incorrigible in more ways than one. The first is a specialist in mixing jazz, soul and funk, which he has been doing since he released his dazzling debut, “Gipsy Evolution” (2014), which earned him praise from Vicente Amigo, El Pele, Antonio Carmona, Rosario, Kiko Veneno and Raimundo Amador. 

The second is skilled at reinterpreting gnawa, the musical tradition of sub-Saharan Africa, from a contemporary perspective, using electronic and psychedelic features that whimsically combine spirituality, modernity and urban rhythms. The result of interaction between these two performance legends on stage will surely be a unique sight.

The performance will be taking place on Friday, October 17 at 9:00 p.m. at the Sala Villanos (address: Calle Bernardino Obregón, 18), in Madrid. The doors will be opening at 8:15 p.m., with tickets on sale (starting at €18) by clicking on this link.
