travelling around Morocco recording the music for<br />
Caravane, which comes out this month, and he’s keen<br />
to continue his musical explorations. “Essaouira is a<br />
great place to look for music. There’s always live music<br />
on somewhere there, but one of the best times to go<br />
is in June, for the World Music Festival. It’s incredible<br />
and bands come from all over the world.<br />
“Agadir is also good, but for me the most interesting<br />
place at the moment is M’hammid, a town on the<br />
edge of the Sahara, about a 10-hour drive south of<br />
Marrakech. There’s music everywhere there – every<br />
street corner has someone playing on it. They have the<br />
Nomads Festival every March, with both international<br />
musicians and nomadic bands from the desert playing.<br />
That’s my next project – I’m going to go with a camera<br />
crew to record the desert rock that’s coming out of the<br />
region for release on CD and as a TV programme.”<br />
