The Egyptian independent band Egoz returns to the scene with a new album titled Bedaya (Beginning).
As a teaser for the album launch, they released one track titled Bedaya on Sunday on the band’s SoundCloud page.
A concert will be held at Darb 1718, as part of Mazzika X Sat7 (Music on The Roof), where Egoz will perform a selection of songs in their upcoming first Arabic spoken album.
The four-member band is comprised of Hany Must on vocals, guitar and keys, Muzty on guitar, Balaha on drums and Moe on bass and backing vocals.
The new music is alternative rock Arabic music with a hint of ambiance.
According to the production agency Nanopsych, “They have been working on this album for around three years. This track symbolises their new beginning, a new start.”
Since 2006, Egoz has been performing across Cairo in various venues including The British Council, El-Sawy Culturewheel, Cairo Jazz Club and The British Club in Cairo.
They have also appeared on national television several times, and have joined some big concerts such as S.O.S, Nokia XpressMusic Festival, as well as The HIV Dance 4 Life.
In 2013, Egoz released Temple Of Small Things, their debut album, which includes all the highlight songs that created the band’s sound and image. Before that they were releasing singles.
