In Arabic, their name means ‘mirage.’ There is no deception or illusion here though, only enchantment. Sarāb brings their audience into an irresistible chiaroscuro world of trance and suspended moments, on the fringes of Syrian, Egyptian, jazz and rock music. ”A distinctive style. A sound. Pure class” (FIP, 2024). Their third album Qawalebese Tape is further proof that Sarāb inhabits a vast musical universe that invites listeners to sing and dance along to their music, which extends from trap to dub, metal and rock, while conveying strong, socially engaged messages without ever losing the thread of a narrative rooted in the poetry of classical Arab maqâmât, all of which is magnificently carried by the voice of singer Climène Zarkan and the dazzling sound of the trombone.
