    Al Hamra is a musical journey that started at the moment I left Syria. The name of the album reflects a hidden intersection between two places that influenced me: Al Hamra street in Beirut, Lebanon, The symbol of pluralism and diversity, and Al Hamra castle in Granada, Spain, which is one of the most magnificent representations of the arabic cultural influence in Spain and Europe.
    The music is based on three main musical directions, The Arabic music, expressed by the Oud, the Arabic lyrics and traditional music elements. The flamenco music brought by the grand flutist Jorge Pardo, the distinguished name in the flamenco scene, and the percussionist Sergio Martinez who twists the flamenco with groovy vibes, The Jazz music, introduced by the delicate pianist Albert Sanz through his rich harmonics, and the unique double bassist Masa Kamaguchi.

about

Moonless night's darkness was inspired by the many criminal politicians around us who contribute to make our life as dark as a moonless night.
giving us a sense of uncertainty, instability and going nowhere.
The sarcastic lyrics which say: "God created for us donkeys to ride them, not to elect them". These words were written on banners by protesters in Iraq during the revolution as the people demanded a change to the system and dreamed of a better life.

lyrics

God created for us donkeys to ride them, not to elect them
