Kasba mixes North African music spices with western musical herbs into a great musical danceable dish. Kasba combines raï with rock, adds a little reggae to it and finishes the dish with a bit of Gnawa. Kasba consists of musicians with different musical backgrounds, rooted in Morocco and The Netherlands. The combination of these musical spices and the energy created by the group during performances makes Kasba a very exciting and interesting group to watch. In 2002 Kasba was asked to play on the wedding of crown prince Willem Alexander and his wife Maxima. The concert was broadcasted in 64 countries and the Career of Kasba went up. Kasba played in TV shows and did radio performances. In the summer of 2002 Kasba released their first album Sidi Yahia. To promote this album they toured in Holland, Belgium and Morocco (Rawafid Festival Casablanca, Festival de Rabat, Festival de Raï Berkane and Festival Mawazine). The commercial Moroccan TV-channel M2 broadcasted live-registrations and RTM (Royal Television Maroc) paid a lot of attention to the group. Right after this tour the group played during the “Made In Holland” project in the well known royal theatre Carré in Amsterdam. After a year of playing in clubs and theatres in Europe, Kasba started to record their second album in 2003. The album “Chouf Chouf” was released at the end of April, 2004.
