How did it feel to finally perform in the Middle East for the first time? Did the energy of the crowd meet your expectations?

Honestly, it felt amazing. We didn’t really know what to expect. We’d heard great things, but being there in person was a whole different story. The moment we got on stage, the energy just hit us, people were super warm, super open, and really there with us. And what made it even more special was that people actually understood the lyrics and the stories we’re trying to tell. We’ve always played in Europe while singing in Arabic, so having a crowd connect with the words so naturally took the whole experience to a completely different level. We walked off stage already talking about how good it felt.

What was your favorite part of the “Chill Oposite” festival?

From the moment we arrived, Dahab gave the festival a unique and unforgettable feel. The scenery and atmosphere blended together perfectly, super laid back but still full of energy. And honestly, hanging around the site after the gig was one of the best parts. Hearing feedback from people who were discovering us for the first time, and having them ask about the lyrics and the stories we’re trying to tell, gave us a real sense of belonging.

After this first experience in the region, do you see yourselves coming back soon or maybe collaborating with local artists?

Definitely. This first trip really opened our eyes to how much is happening in the scene here. We’d love to come back. There’s a real buzz and so much talent around. Collaborating with local artists is something we’re totally up for, and there’s a lot of room to create something really cool together. Hopefully, you’ll hear some news soon, we’re already cooking up something with a few local artists.
