2019, the year of this live recording, was Sami’s second time headlining the prestigious Fes Festival; the first time was 2009, joining the ranks of earlier headliners such as Ravi Shankar, Paco de Lucia, Youssou N’Dour, Joan Baez, Björk, and Ben Harper. The musician’s special love for this land is evident in the works heard here, and this album delivers all the magic of the live performance that held the Fes audience spellbound.
