Born and raised in Agadir, Morocco, Samir LanGus brings a Grammy-nominated touch to the stage. Specializing in the Moroccan traditional and spiritual trance, Gnawa, LanGus takes you on a sonic journey often referred to as "The Moroccan Blues."  He skillfully utilizes this traditional repertoire, infusing it with his contemporary spin, incorporating jazz instrumentation, and presenting a fusion of centuries-old North African tradition with the pulsating attitude of present-day New York City

Don't miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in a cultural convergence where the rich traditions of Morocco meet the vibrant heartbeat of New York City. Join us for an unforgettable night of musical enchantment that will linger in your soul long after the final note.

We will close out the evening with an electrifying performance by Omar Aena, a New York City native with roots in Iraq. Omar will be weaving together electronic beats of the present with traditional world music of the past.
