CLUB CLANDESTINO | JANUARY 13 | OCEANEN

These seven innovative improvisational geniuses from Beirut, Cairo, Istanbul and Chicago first met in 2014 when they performed at an event celebrating the Egyptian surf guitarist Omar Khorshid’s music. The members had previously been members of bands like Dwarfs of East Agouza, Konstrukt, A-Trio, Johnny Kafta Anti-Vegetarian Orchestra, and brought together the energies from the experimental music scenes of their different home towns, exploding into the ever-changing mix which is their latest album For Seun Matta. Surfy guitars, oud, psychedelic flutes and free jazz trips with elements of shaabi, tarab, sufi and lots more. A mix that can only be described as post-everything and beyond genre descriptions.
