With their distinct approach to storytelling and orchestration, they have crafted some of the most melancholic ballads and raucous anthems in contemporary alternative Arabic music, and went on to perform them live at sold-out venues in Lebanon, Cairo, Amman, Paris, Amsterdam, and Geneva.<\/p>\n<p>  Their eponymous debut album and the 7al Romacy EP unfold like cinematographic fictions starring lovesick characters in desolate motels or wandering insomniacs in ghostly cities. At times quirky and playful, at others bitter and somber, the songs demonstrate the band\u2019s great versatility in dealing with musical form, narrative, and social issues.<\/p>\n<p> <strong>Special Formula:<\/strong>Tickets are sold at Virgin Ticketing Box Office: Downtown Beirut, ABC Achrafieh, ABC Dbayeh, City Mall Dora, Le Mall Sin el-Fil, Tripoli, Faqra Club, Saida (Al Ittihad Bookshop), Byblos Venue and Damasquino Mall &#8211;
