Sinkane is the pseudonym of Ahmed Gallab and chances are you’ve seen him in sitting in Born Ruffians, Carribou, Yeasayer or Of Montreal. The dude is a plug and play drummer with next level world beat sense. Sinakne’s “Mars” album from 2012 was a sleeper that most people didn’t get around to that garnered critical acclaim. The good news is that he’s on the last leg of the upcoming Toro y Moi tour where you can catch some sure to be space jazz improvisation firsthand.
