*Events at The Casbah are 21+ with a valid ID* Since 2014, Mohama Saz has been creating unique sounds by skillfully combining elements of southern spanish folk, Eastern european music, kraut rock and african-inspired rhythms. With the baglama saz, synthesizers and powerful rhythm section, the four-piece from Madrid explores musical horizons emancipated from british rock tradition. Mohama Saz from Madrid, Spain are one of the most exciting live bands in the world today, a mind-blowing manifestation of pure psychedelic exotica. Within minutes of taking the stage they have the audience completely under their spell, dancing in wide-eyed bliss to their uniquely intoxicating music. With an electrified Baglama Saz as their lead instrument they fuse elements of Turkish and Armenian folk music, Mediterranean psychedelia and mesmerizing Middle Eastern-flavored ragas with galvanizing go-go discotheque grooves. Mike Stax (Ugly Things Magazine / The Loons) Experiencing Mohama Saz live is a meditative ritual of excitement and pure emotion. One of the best live shows I can think of today, they are truly something special! Jake García (The Black Angels) While listening to their albums is a journey into musical bliss, Mohama Saz is better known for their explosive live shows, where communion with the audience transforms the performance into a psychedelic rave where dance, emotion and a quasi-mystical experience go hand in hand. They have entranced audiences at some of Europe's best festivals, such as Le Guess Who in the Netherlands, the MENT Festival in Slovenia, and Desert Fest in Hamburg. In addition to Spain, they have toured Italy, Germany, Portugal, France, Belgium, Prague, and Austria. In August 2022, they embarked on their first West Coast tour of the United States, which included concerts organized by the Desert Daze festival. They returned the following year on a more ambitious U.S. tour, this time with 18 concerts in 21 days. They played shows in California, Arizona, Texas, and New Mexico. Tiki Oasis and Ugly Things Weekend (both in San Diego) were highlights of that tour. In the beginning of 2024 they performed at Barcelona Psych Fest, Keroxen, Blockparty, Monkey Weekend, Sintonitzza, and Altaveu. Then in July of that same year they set off on a European tour supporting HIGH ON FIRE. Then returned back to the United States in August for their third American tour, this time traveling through six states and performing in Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Austin, San Antonio, Houston, and Galveston. In 2025, they performed at Primavera Sound, Reus Cultura Contemporanea, Músicas Disperses (Lleida), Fumega Fest, and Sauzipf Festival (Austria), among others. The "Maquina De Guerra" tour concludes with a sold-out show at the Sala Copérnico in Madrid, capacity 700 people. The concert was recorded and will be released on a double album in February of next year.
