Lekhfa الإخفاء by Maryam Saleh, Maurice Louca, Tamer Abu Ghazaleh

Three musicians who came of age in 1990s Cairo, their disparate paths in music intersect a couple of decades later when they’re drawn to each other’s work, and agree to meet at a seaside cabin in Alexandria, followed by residencies in Amman, Cairo, and Beirut to create and record a new album.

Maryam Saleh, Maurice Louca, and Tamer Abu Ghazaleh, names that have turned heads in alternative Arabic music with solo albums and conspicuous collaborations.

The album is produced by Mostakell with the support of the Arab Fund for Arts and Culture (AFAC)
