Hoba Hoba Spirit
> Casablanca
Hoba Hoba Spirit, born at Casablanca in 1998, has become a reference on the modern-day musical scene. The path taken has been long and enriching since its participation in the Essaouira Gnawa Festival and at L’Boulevard des Jeunes Musiciens in the early 2000s. The band is often compared to Mano Negra for its
energetic and colorful performances. In 2009, Hoba Hoba Spirit partook in the «Festival Arabesque: Arts of the Arab World » at the famous Kennedy Center.
Since its creation the group has come out with 5 albums and performed at some 300 concerts in Morocco
and elsewhere. This band has been able to distinguish itself by a mixture of rock energy, North African
rhythms and often striking lyrics. Their latest album called « Neffs ou Nya » dates from 2011.
