Tarabband is a Malmö-based music group founded by Iraqi-Egyptian vocalist Nadin Al Khalidi and Swedish guitarist Gabriel Hermansson. Blending influences from Arabic music, folk, jazz, and pop, Tarabband creates emotionally rich songs that often explore themes of exile, identity, and resilience. Singing predominantly in Arabic, Al Khalidi draws from her personal experiences of war and migration, offering a powerful and poignant voice to stories from the Middle East and beyond.
Since forming in 2008, Tarabband has gained a loyal international following, thanks in part to their dynamic live performances and thoughtful songwriting. Their music has resonated with audiences across Europe and the Arab world, with albums like Ashofak Baden highlighting their signature sound — a heartfelt fusion of East and West.
