Alsarah & the Nubatones were born out of a collective love for Nubian music, modern migration patterns, and the cultural exchanges between Sudan and Egypt.

Under the leadership of Alsarah, the Brooklyn-based group’s sound grew into what they have dubbed “East African retro-pop.” Their critically acclaimed albums, Silt and Manara, blend African, Arabic, and Western sounds. The band has toured extensively, performing at major festivals such as Glastonbury. Indeed, the music of Alsarah & the Nubatones meets audiences across linguistic and cultural borders, proving the power of melodic connection.
