Baraka Moon in Concert Wednesday March 29
March 29, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Direct from San Francisco BARAKA MOON ECSTATIC GLOBAL TRANCE GROOVES
Based in The San Francisco Bay Area and bringing together global citizens with origins in Pakistan, the UK, Canada and the USA Baraka Moon's all original music ignites from ancient Qawaali Sufi trance songs, Indian classical ragas, Middle Eastern overtones and African drums & percussion, plus the Australian Aboriginal didgeridoo and brings all those influences together into an uplifting and resonant whole – spiritually charged and soulful dance music with a positive message of peace for the whole world!
Baraka is the Sufi word for blessing. Charismatic and passionate vocalist Sukhawat Ali Khan fronts Baraka Moon performing on the harmonium and drawing from his luminary family's 600 years of vocal tradition with a voice that comes straight from the heart, while didjeridu virtuoso Stephen Kent, a globally acclaimed pioneer in bringing the ancient Aboriginal instrument to the contemporary world, plows a deep earthy groove and shakes it down together with Peter Warren's driving drums as Anastasi Mavrides paints singing constellations with his shimmering guitar. Open your soul and sing your heart! Even the gods are dancing and smiling!!!
Formed on the night of a blood moon eclipse Baraka Moon brings together a unique and ecstatic combination of traditional and contemporary Pakistani and Indian music with the Australian Aboriginal Didjeridu, combining them with an afro-funking blues rhythm section that whirls the frenzied crowd into the stratosphere!
