Gnawa Trance Fusion is a musical collective that blends traditional Gnawa music from Morocco with modern genres such as jazz, funk, electronic, and world music. Originating from the rich cultural heritage of the Gnawa people, the band draws inspiration from the hypnotic, spiritual rhythms and chants of this Afro-Maghrebi tradition. Gnawa music, known for its deep-rooted connection to healing and trance, features the use of instruments like the guembri (a three-stringed lute) and metal qraqeb (castanets).

The band amplifies this ancient musical form with contemporary influences, creating a soundscape that appeals to global audiences. By integrating electronic beats, improvisational jazz, or even psychedelic rock elements, Gnawa Trance Fusion bridges the gap between past and present, offering an immersive auditory experience.

Known for their high-energy live performances, the group aims to evoke the transcendent and spiritual essence of Gnawa ceremonies while inviting listeners into a collaborative and experimental sonic journey. Gnawa Trance Fusion not only honors their roots but also redefines them, expanding the reach of this timeless tradition to diverse music lovers worldwide.
