“Sometimes you can’t go home”
Distant Roots" explores the profound emotions linked to the impossibility of returning home, resonating with a profound longing for familiar landscapes and the cherished memories of my upbringing. Rooted in the compelling power and beauty of Arabic poetry
The album unfolds as a profound exploration of varied emotional states and a reflection on my personal musical journey. Originating in Damascus and traversing through Cairo, Istanbul, Greece, and ultimately finding resonance in Amsterdam, "Distant Roots" charts a sonic odyssey. Its purpose is to forge a connection between my forcibly displaced roots and my present abode. Through the evocative language of music, I seek to bridge the gap between my past and present, delving into themes of nostalgia and loss while embracing the intricate facets of my evolving identity.
