Mezar is a band that bridges ancestral traditions and contemporary sound explorations. Their music brings together bedouin blues — drawing on Sub-Saharan heritages — with analogue textures and a research-driven approach to sound. The result is a music both rooted in ancestral memory and open to futuristic horizons.
In 2024, Mezar released the EP “Sohan”, supported by the Canada Council for the Arts, exploring the story of a Tuareg dreaming of becoming an astronaut. Presented at the MaMA Festival in Paris and finalist for the Prix des Musiques d’Ici, this project marked a turning point for the band.
Now signed to the Canadian-Jordanian label Keife Records, Mezar is preparing a new album with the support of European program Rawabet, while continuing to perform on European and international stages, carrying their unique blend of heritage and sonic innovation.
