“Mazzika X El Sat7”, is a monthly musical night that will be held at Darb 1718’s roof, aka El Sat7. Throughout the night, we present you a musical journey that will make your soul travel into a surreal world to help you unplug in a cozy warm atmosphere with limited number of audience.

Band members:

Omar Ashour (Classical Guitar):
Starting in his early teenage years, Ashour went on to study music more seriously in Dalhousie University in a small town called Halifax, Nova Scotia in the Atlantic Ocean. He dove right into teaching after leaving the comfortable grounds of academia, and met a lot of interesting folks along the way. A decade and a half, and a lot of riffs later, the lone minstrel finds himself in Cairo, willing to give it all another whirl.
