Sidi Abdallah is the son of legendary Abdallah Oumbadougou from Agadez, Niger. Sidi grew up surrounded by Tuareg music and culture. His late father was one of the originators of the guitar-driven musical genre now called Tuareg desert blues. Steeped in this style Sidi emerges today among the new Tuareg musicians from Niger giving their own interpretation of the traditions of their fathers. He brings fresh energy to the music from northern Niger. With classic Tuareg instrumentation - electric guitars, percussion and vocal - Sidi?s music echoes his father?s influence, as well as the influence of other musicians from Niger such as Rhissa ag Wanagli, Bombino, Mdou Moctar and the many other young musicians active in Agadez today. Sidi is age 22 and lives in Arlit and Agadez in northern Niger.
