Cairokee to perform 2 concerts in Alexandria

CAIRO – 2 July 2018: After almost a year of absence Egyptian band Cairokee will be holding two concerts at the Library of Alexandria on August 9 and 10, 2018.

In May, the famed Egyptian band performed a huge concert in Amman, Jordan. It was their first Ramadan concert. In the same month they performed a successful concert at Cairo Festival City; the concert was a big hit and was organized by the band for the first time under the theme "Cairokee Empire".

Cairokee is one of the most successful bands in Egypt; they are well-known for their folk and indie rock music, as well as their lyrics that tackle social and political issues in the country. The band was founded in 2003, but their hit "Soot al-Horreya" (Voice of Freedom), launched online in 2011, took them to another level of fame and placed them among pop stars.

The band released their latest album this past summer by the name “No'ta Beida” (White Dot), which has gone viral and achieved millions of views on YouTube. The whole album was filmed as music videos in a single location, except for their track “El Dinosaur”. The album was made in their style along with different twists that their audience was not used to, but were well-received.
