Description

Zaman Music Band was established in 2005 by the singer Suheil Foudi, and the guitarist Yazid Said. Suheil and Yazid met in Akka and they aimed, through Zaman Band, at spreading the word about Palestinian youth and representing the Palestinian and Arabic culture in their songs and performances. Therefore, they worked on writing their own songs, as well as reviving the old Palestinian, Syrian, and North African songs but all in a new and modern way. Zaman Band is known for delivering a mix of Palestinian, Arabic, Spanish songs through a series of traditional Eastern songs.

The songs that Zaman Band performs undoubtedly talk about the Palestinian conflict and suffer due to the Israeli occupation, however, they also talk about the everyday life Palestinians go through; they wrote about love, ambition, optimism and hope.

In addition to Suheil and Yazid, Zaman Band has four other members: Fadel Qandeel, Nizar Qabbani, Waleed Salloum, and Ibrahim Khalil. Samer Saleh is currently the general manager of the band.
