For the second consecutive year, NPR teamed up with globalFEST in January 2021 for a thrilling online music festival we call Tiny Desk Meets globalFEST: three nights, nine bands, and a world of musical traditions hosted by African pop star Angélique Kidjo. Now, we’re posting all the sets from our festival as individual Tiny Desk (home) concerts. Bob Boilen | January 27, 2022
Lebanese indie stalwart Zeid Hamdan and celestially voiced Syrian singer Lynn Adib are Bedouin Burger, a rising duo from the Middle East. Their music marries traditional Arab sounds of magam, religious songs of ancient Syria, jazz, and slick pop hooks – all delivered with a sultry, insouciant flare. Recording from Helico Studios in France, this rhythmic, entrancing performance exemplifies the band’s musical style of “surviving chaos through a celebration of life.“ —The globalFEST staff SET LIST
