Yemen Blues was founded in 2010 by lead singer Ravid Kahalani. The musical group draws on a powerful mixture of Yemenite, West African, and Jazz influences. Their mambo and North African rhythms create a joyful and deep foundation, while the vocals remind the listener of ancient Arabic chants — and at the same time, funk and blues.
Yemen Blues brings audiences to their feet whether in a rock club or a concert hall. Their sound is infectious, and the impulse to sway and sing along becomes involuntary.
