Sababa 5 are embarking on a new live tour with Nadir, their upcoming full-length album - a deeper, more cinematic journey into psychedelic soul and Middle Eastern groove. With the release of their first single 'VU' on May 13th, the band begins a new chapter, immersed in hypnotic rhythms, swirling textures, and shadowy grooves that connect the past
with the future. Named after the astronomical point directly beneath the observer, Nadir represents introspection and transformation. It's where the cosmic and earthly worlds converge, and where Sababa 5 shape their most evocative sound yet.
While the music takes on a reflective tone, their live shows are an entirely different experience. These performances are a journey through Sababa 5's diverse musical landscape-a mix of deep cuts, dancefloor anthems, and a shared celebration of groove. It's an exploration of sound and emotion, delivered with joy and energy.
Now based in Paris, Sababa 5 are known for their unique blend of Middle Eastern psych, vintage grooves, and modern energy. Having collaborated with artists from Japan to Yemen, and across the Mediterranean and India, their music bridges continents and eras, always keeping the groove alive. With recognition from tastemakers like Gilles Peterson, Cerys Matthews, and Jeremy Sole, Sababa 5 invites you to join them live as they explore new depths and create unforgettable moments.
