Join Al-Bustan for a community gathering of live music and togetherness. The Árabe Mahrajan is built around the album release and live performance of Amanda Ekery and her touring musicians. Ekery is a vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and composer with roots in Syria and Mexico, her work explores the shared history and culture of her heritage. Árabe contains original songs and accompanying essays written by Amanda with the stories and history behind each track, covering everything from food, gambling, and evil eyes to immigration law, biracial identity, and the fraught relationship between immigrant entrepreneurship and workers’ rights.
