Mohamed Errebbaa

Mohamed Errebbaa was born in Rabat, a Moroccan musician and Master in the GNAWA world. He spent a decade travelling throughout Morocco, studying the diverse regional musical traditions under some of the leading musicians in the country. In southern Morocco, he immersed himself in the study of Issawa, Deqqa folkloric percussion, and became especially passionate about the three-stringed Gnawa bass lute, the Guembri. After mastering these traditional musical forms, he launched his international career.

Receptive to the fusion of musical genres, he has collaborated with many leading international artists. He worked and performed with artists Trevy Felix, Nelly Stharre, Antonia Vai, Hamid Bouchnak, Martin Signeur and Justin Adams, mixing traditional African music with the sounds of the wider world.

Mohamed has already performed at festivals worldwide including Shambala, Greenbelt, Musicport, WOMAD (UK), Bergenfest (Norway), Busan (South Korea), and Festival Internationale de Percussions Sousse (Tunisia).
