Emel – Livestream & In-person
Mark your calendars! This concert will be streamed live at 7:30 pm ET.
Tunisian singer-songwriter Emel Mathlouthi, better known as Emel, rose to international prominence as the voice of the Arab Spring with her world-shaking pop protest anthem Kelmti Horra (My Word is Free). Since that breakout song, Emel has honed her skills to a fine edge, developing an immediately recognizable sound fusing hallmarks of Arabic and North African composition with UK electronic, trip hop, goth, folk and art rock. Over the past decade, Mathlouthi has toured globally, released four LPs of original music, and been embraced by Pitchfork, who called her work "magnetic, inviting, and urgent." Emel’s latest release, 2021’s Everywhere We Looked Was Burning, is an electrifying live tour re-recording of her groundbreaking, English-language dominant 2019 album.
This event is approximately 90 minutes.
