TootArd - Migrant Birds (Glitterbeat Records)

If predecessor 'Laissez Passer' was still clearly influenced by Tuareg blues, brothers Hasan and Rami Nakhleh took a completely different direction for successor 'Migrant Birds'.

TootArd - Laissez Passer (Glitterbeat Records)

TootArd, a group of young musicians from Majdal Shams in the Israel occupied Golan Heights (a plateau on the border between Israel, Lebanon, Syria and Jordan), started out playing reggae covers back in 2010. Add some influences from Tuareg music to the mix (not accidentally also a stateless people) and the fact all members of the five-man band grew up with classical Arabic music, and you get the sound of TootArd.

TOOTARD - AB 02/2018

Hasan Nakleh: "Whenever we want to travel outside of the Golan Heights, we need a travel document called a laissez-passer. That's also why we chose that term as the title of our new album, because the thought behind it was we could use the album as our laissez-passer."
