MASHROU LEILA at Baalbeck FESTIVAL

In the two years since Mashrou’ Leila became the revelation on the local lebanese music scene, they have performed at sold-out venues in Lebanon, Cairo, Amman, Paris, Amsterdam and Prague. The group has been hugely followed and built an impressive fan club. Because they are young and in, because their music pulls you, and because the stories they sing are those of our daily lives, Mashrou’ Leila (in Arabic: overnight project) represents a whole new generation. For this unique concert in Lebanon in 2012, Mashrou’ Leila will interpret their best-selling hits and their all time most popular songs such as Shim El Yasmine, Raksit Leila, Habibi ou El Hal Romancy but also a large part of the songs on their next album which will be recorded next spring. For the closing show of the Baalbeck International Festival’s 2012 program Mashrou’ Leila promises us a special evening.
