Bongolian

While still writing and performing with Big Boss Man, multi-instrumentalist Nasser Bouzida, (or just Nass to you and me), disappeared into the studio to create a brand new sound in the name of his new alter ego the Bongolian. As the Bongolian, he takes us on a solo musical journey through funk and spaced-out Latin soul - writing, performing and recording all the material himself. Blending elements of funk, soul an jazz with grinding percussion and heavy bongo rhythms. The new sound is epitomized by the funky rhythmic stomp of his debut single Bongohead and the eponymous Bongolian LP was released early in 2003, which received much critical acclaim and frequent plays on Radio One. Having played all the instruments for the studio recording himself, the Bongolian has now assembled a band to take the new Bongo sound on the road.
