Bedouins coming back to London in June-July

BEDOUIN JERRY CAN BAND at the South Bank Centre 24th June 2008

BEDOUIN JERRY CAN BAND (BJB), a collective of semi-nomadic musicians, storytellers, dancers and coffee grinders from the Egyptian Sinai desert perform a special concert at the Purcell Room on Tuesday 24th June featuring Sudanese musicians RANGO.

Following acclaimed reviews for their debut CD and a sell out performance at the Ramadan Nights festival, BJB are returning to London as part of their “Coffee Time” 28-date UK tour supported by the Arts Council. The Purcell Room performance features music, dance, storytelling and traditional coffee grinding, giving a rare insight to authentic Bedouin culture from the Egyptian Sinai desert.

Blending melodies from the ancient Simsimiyyia lyre with desert flutes, reed pipes and the wolf-skin Rababa fiddle, BJB’s hypnotic Arabian rhythms are played on a cacophony of junk percussion; including clay jugs, rusty ammunition boxes and jerry cans salvaged from the former battle grounds of the six day Arab/Israeli war of 1967.

Joining BJB, and making their debut UK performance, are Hassan Bergamon and TuTu from RANGO, Cairo-based Sudanese master musicians performing mystic healing music on Tanbura lyre and vintage Rango idiophone.

Tuesday 24th June 7:45pm
Venue: Purcell Room at the Queen Elizabeth Hall
