Tunisian singer-songwriter Nour Harkati is a master of the Guembri, an ancient three-stringed West African instrument similar to a lute and a banjo. Now living in New York City, the surprisingly young man has put together a fantastic band to showcase his unique sound, which mixes organic bass tones of his instrument with the frenetic pulse of a modern rhythm section. It’s good stuff. You can hear for yourself at the Miniplex tonight at 7:30 p.m. for $20. Support comes from DJ Rhi Marie.
