Fête de la Musique 2010

The Fete de la Musique in Lebanon, that is highly anticipated by music lovers who wait for the Music festival, such as myself, every 21st of June, and which usually presents great artists and bands, will happen again as usual this 21st of June.


It will take place in Beirut, Downtown area, Hamra and Gemmayze. Stay tuned and keep checking this post, as I will add the full program here, so we can all organize what to visit and where.

It says that there will be a special "Event" in the DOME (Egg), some of the artists that will be performing there are: Fareeq El Atrash, The Incompetents, Zeid and the Wings, Ghazi Abdel Baki, Youmna Saba...

Updated: Here's the program on facebook.

Gorillaz at Byblos Intl Festival

I can't believe that Gorillaz are performing in Lebanon. I am so happy to see this. I had heard rumors, and thank god it's true. They will be performing in Byblos International Festival.

Another great news was knowing that Mashrou' Leila, who is a Lebanese band, is also going to be performing in Byblos. I am very proud of this! Especially that Byblos festivals attract mostly western tourists, therefore this will be a great opportunity for Mashrou' Leila to be exposed to the western world.

Check more on the festival here www.byblosfestival.org. Also check my older post on other festivals in Lebanon.
