Sleeping Camels

Creative meeting of six outstanding musicians whose experiences roots back to different cultures and styles. The possibility to work together opened their horizons and they created a unique sound marked by west African soul and grooves, the rhythm of the Balkan, the songs of the Middle East and jazz.

The members of the group first met in a festival in 2009 in order to form a band and play together on a small tour in east Europe. Following the success of this creation program, the musicians - who all came from different countries - decided to continue their energetic cooperation. Just few months after they were invited by a Hungarian record label to record their first album together.
The richness of their common music roots back to their different countries they came from and the musical influence they had in their vast experience in different fields of music, such as the modern and traditional African music, the rhythm of the Balkan, the jazz and the music of the Middle East. On the way to find the common ground in their new arrangement and composition they found new harmonies and the cultural borders suddenly disappeared to give the place to World Music.
