Major Announcement:

July 6, 2019PermalinkKarim TerouzNews

After 6 years of countless stories and warm memories The Rising Few was a true testament to going out there and just « doing it ». It is my hope that The Rising Few filled all of you with joy, inspiration that our collective soul could exude.
After a self-imposed period of quiet and reflection it is in all humility and gratitude that I must say, “A Dieu” to The Rising Few.
To all of my supporters, throughout the Mediterranean, Egypt, Montréal, and elsewhere around the world, I say warmly, thank you and ”Alf Shokr”.
I now stand before you as TEROUZ and I will be announcing my first release, same time next week!
Onwards! and God bless!

-Karim Térouz

Hailing from Egypt, Massar Egbari (which means “compulsory detour”) combine oriental and western forms in their fusion style. There is a clear rock sensibility to their music, but this belies a dusky tone to their lyrics, which tackle social issues arising in these challenging times in Egypt. Their style and lyrics had a great impact on the indie music scene. Winners of many awards and bestowed the title of “Artists for Intercultural Dialogue” by UNESCO in 2010, Massar Egbari has toured in Europe, Asia, Africa, America and the Middle East.

Massar Egbari will be live in Montreal ! Are you ready ?
2 concerts on March 11th at 2 pm & 7:30 pm
