Bob Music
In case you hadn't noticed the Bob Marley posters and music throughout the souqs, this store makes the Marrakesh-Jamaica connection even more obvious. Gnaoua musicians are quick to point out the similarity in some rhythmic patterns and tunes, but you can put this ethonomusicology theory to the test yourself: pick up some Gnaoua castanets or a drum in this shop, and try your own Gnaoua rendition of 'Redemption Song'. No matter how badly you play it, you're bound to make their day at Bob Music.

Gnaoua Music Shop
You'll have to duck to avoid banging the drums over the doorway with your head, but you've come to the right place to go Gnaoua and join a jam session. These are the handmade, rustic instruments played in the Djemaa el-Fna, from recycled-metal castanets to goatskins stretched over sturdy frames that can take a real pounding.
