Innov Gnawa History
Innov Gnawa is a Moroccan musical group founded in 2016, rooted in the traditional Gnawa music of North Africa. Gnawa music is known for its spiritual and healing properties, often performed during rituals that combine music, dance, and trance. The group was formed by a collective of talented musicians, including Maâlem Hassan Benjaafar, who is a master of the guembri, a three-stringed bass instrument essential to Gnawa music. Innov Gnawa aims to bridge the gap between traditional Gnawa sounds and contemporary music, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Morocco to global audiences. Over the years, they have gained recognition for their energetic live performances, which integrate elements of jazz, blues, and other world music styles, creating a unique fusion that resonates with diverse audiences. Their debut album, 'Lila,' released in 2018, was a significant milestone, capturing the essence of their innovative approach while honoring the traditional roots of Gnawa. The group has performed at numerous international music festivals, captivating audiences with their dynamic stage presence and the spiritual depth of their music.
