AFIRKA

At the heart of AfirkA is the shared experience of exhilarating, carefree evenings filled with joy and laughter; inclusive, liberating, exuberant celebrations, pulsating with Algeria’s rhythmic pop sound and punctuated by long, enthusiastic ululations and a cheering crowd. Passionate, urban and energizing, the band features the darbouka, mandola, guitar and violin while its covers of raï, chaoui and kabyle hits are a wonderful reminder of the inherently cosmopolitan nature of Algerian rhythms.
