Maryam Saleh, Maurice Louca & Tamer Abu Ghazaleh

Sunday, 8 April

Maryam Saleh, Maurice Louca and Tamer Abu Ghazaleh are three of the most powerful and creative musical voices in the Arabic world today. Having each blazed their own path through Egypt’s alternative music scene over the course of a decade, the Cairo-born trio recently united to create their newly-released masterpiece, Lekhfa. Led by Maryam Saleh’s muscular and alluring vocals, they blend elements of traditional Arabic, jazz, rock, shaabi and electronic music into a wonderfully off-kilter sound in which layers of grit and beauty intertwine around the dystopian poems of their contemporary Mido Zoheir.
