Traditionally performed with the guembri (three-string bass lute), krakebs (metal castanets), and ritual chanting, Gnawa music is all about connection, healing, and collective energy on the dancefloor. Gnawa Manchester brings this rich heritage into a contemporary club setting – fusing ancestral rhythms with global sounds for a high-energy, immersive live experience. 💿 Supporting the incredible Habibi Funk – the Berlin-based label and DJ collective dedicated to rediscovering and celebrating vinyl gems from across the Arab world and beyond – expect dee
