Finally

Le Cri du Caire perform live at Le Guess Who? 2023 following the release of their self-titled debut album.

About:
Singer, writer, poet, and expressionist Abdullah Miniawy became, in the wake of the revolution, an artistic emblem for Egypt’s agitated youth. Alongside Peter Corser on the saxophone and Karsten Hochapfel on the cello, he is sure to grip audiences as Le Cri du Caire. Blending rock, jazz, sprinkles of oriental flourishes, spoken word, and Sufi poetry and philosophy, the three-piece adorn each room they play in with a rich metaphorical universe transcending identities and borders. Their self-titled debut, released in January, serves as a sample of what can be achieved on the stage.

Recorded at Jacobikerk Utrecht on Friday, 10 November 2023.

Le Cri du Caire - Pearls for Orphans

This album is a raw, unvarnished journey into the heart of the American South during the mid-20th century, echoing the foundational sounds of Delta Blues. Each track tells a standalone
story of struggle, fate, and the pursuit of solace, steeped in the mystique and stark reality of the Delta.
