Rhythms & Mixes: A Night with Simona Abdallah, DJ Hiba Salameh, and MUSYS

**Join Liverpool Arab Arts Festival and Savera UK for a night of exhilarating rhythms and mixes from three powerful female musicians of Arab heritage: internationally renowned percussionist Simona Abdallah; Palestinian music producer, filmmaker and DJ, Hiba Salameh, and Jordanian sound artist, creative producer and DJ, Yasmeen Soudani (DJ MUSYS).**

**Celebrating her virtuosity on the darbuka, an instrument traditionally dominated by men, Simona will bring her rhythmic energy to Rough Trade in a powerful solo set, before showcasing her unparalleled improvisational skills performing with DJ Hiba Salameh and DJ MUSYS.**

**Named by Mixmag as 'one of the Palestinian DJs you need to know', DJ Hiba Salameh’s electrifying sets navigate through the wide universe of electronic music blending the huge heritage of Arabic music with its counterparts from the planet’s southern hemisphere.**

**MUSYS plays experimental electronica shaped by nostalgia and futurist Arab themes. She has played across the country from the Jazz Cafe to Royal Albert Hall. As a sound artist, her practice explores migration, land and collective identity, drawing on archaeology, sonic cultures and imagined futures.**

**This is a standing event only**
