Sounds familiar, I think he was here before.. There was a band I saw a few year back called baye fall gnawa, or gnawa baye fall... Nice mix, gimbri, ngoni, djembe etc...

Yeah I think that's his band. I like his stuff. I see he has a newer CD out as well... I'm gonna check that one out.

This isn't really a gimbiri, but I found this site while looking at videos and similar instruments. This is one of these people I love and hate (playfully) for doing something so awesome. Anyone else know of this blog? http://musiccycles.com/tag/gimbri/
