SUMMARY:Dur-Dur Band International
LOCATION:Fox And Firkin
DESCRIPTION:There was a time when Mogadishu\, the capital of Somalia\, was 
 often referred to as the “pearl of the Indian Ocean.” Before Dictator 
 Mohamed Siad Barre was ousted in 1991 and the country plunged into civil w
 ar\, it was a beautiful\, cosmopolitan city with the nightlife and bands l
 ike Dur Dur to soundtrack it.\n\nDur Dur Band it’s the name originally t
 aken by 80’s Mogadishu Somalia Funk\, Disco\, Soul Band that was later d
 isbanded in the early 90s\, unable to continue playing in their city\, Dur
 -Dur Band broke up and scattered abroad. Their competition did too\, and t
 he cinemas\, studios\, hotels and theatres that once played host to their 
 music closed\, or were forced to. In 2006\, Mogadishu was briefly dominate
 d by Islamic extremists who attempted to outlaw music. The place where thi
 s music was made is still listed on the map as though nothing changed\, bu
 t it’s not the same city today as it was in 1987. These music recordings
  are a superb glimpse of what was and what’s been lost.\n\nDur Dur Band 
 International as it’s known now is the regrouping of some of the origina
 l Dur Dur Band founding members such as the legendary bass player Abdillah
 i Ujerry\, also Mohamaed Karama\, Qomal\, Omar Teesiyow including the lege
 ndry Iftin Band musi- cians Saleh Hariri\, Nabil\, Ali Atore\, Yusuf Nagi 
 and Said Hussein from Waaberi National Band with the phenomenon vocalist F
 adumian Hilowle with a repertoire of Funky Oldies and contemporary compila
 tions of the best in Somali Funk.\n\nBoletos: https://dice.fm/event/l8m8ap
