Paris-based band, Sababa 5 are known for their blend of Middle Eastern psychedelia, Mediterranean funk, and analog groove. They fuse swirling organs, surf guitars, and irresistible rhythms into a style both nostalgic and forward-looking.

They gained global recognition with "Tokyo Midnight / Nasnusa", featuring Japanese singer Yurika, and continued to explore new directions through collaborations and live performances across Europe. Their self-titled debut album and the follow-up, Aspan, deepened their signature sound: a rich, instrumental fusion of funk, disco, and Eastern melodies.

In 2025, they unveiled Nadir, their most ambitious album to date. Nadir dives deeper into emotion, texture, and groove, the sound of a band unafraid to move forward. This journey continues into early 2026 with the release of their fifth album, Ca Va Ca Va, embracing a celebratory 'Hafla' sound (Middle Eastern party), which will be supported by an extensive European tour.
