Nadah El-Shazly is a producer, vocalist and sound artist from Cairo, Egypt. Her debut album „Ahwar“ radically reinvents the popular music of her homeland in the early 19th century and explores new sonic and harmonic frontiers. Using her voice, field recordings and instruments, she creates breathtaking sound pieces and songforms that hijack the perception of time with their complex layers and dynamic structure. Backing up her release with extensive worldwide touring through a solo set and four-piece band, El-Sahzly has been featured in local international festivals.Nadha El-Shazly (voc), Sarah Page (harp), Sam Shalabi (elec – g), Jonah Fortune (upright bass)
