Gibraltar's music is not restricted to one genre, and the styles of music cross every border that the band members crossed in their paths. Growing up in North Africa as Berbers, Kamel, Abdel and Hacene were exposed to different languages (Berber, Arabic, French, English and Spanish) and consequently to different types of music such as rock, blues, jazz, traditional Berber, gipsy, French, rai, and chaabi (popular North African).
On stage, Gibraltar sings in all these languages and the repertoire varies between rumba, reggae, gnawi, rai and Berber songs. The variety keeps the music rich and audiences more attracted and interested.
