​saba barada, arabic songs and music

​Saba Barada was formed in 2014 by Syrian musicians who fled their country and took shelter in Turkey. Since then, they have performed in Istanbul, Gaziantep and Antakya. Band members Hareth Mhedi (Vocals and Oud), Wassim Mukdad (Oud) and Maher Kat (Percussions) play Arabic songs and music from their heritage since they come from various cultural backgrounds in Syria but also their own compositions. These talk of hope emerging from sorrow and of life trying to defeat death. Their music has a wide appeal regardless of the audience, whether Syrian, Turkish or international
