Ton-W From its debut concert, captured live on the 2013 release entitled ASWAN, it was clear that the Nile Project was something completely new. National Public Radio named the recording one of five "Must Hear International Albums." Fast forward a few years - through tours in Africa, Europe, the US and UAE - and almost all major media outlets agree that the Nile Project is much more than just a band. The New York Times described it as "a committed, euphoric international coalition." Afropop Worldwide calls it "seductive and beautiful (...) nothing short of revolutionary." One of the tightest cross-cultural collaborations in musical history, the Nile Project brings together artists from the 11 Nile countries, representing over 450 million people, to compose new songs that combine the rich diversity of one of the oldest places on Earth. Kindred harps and resonant lyres from the river's sources in East Africa and Ethiopia to its deltas in Sudan and Egypt have reunited to learn new musical modes while buzzing timbres and ingenious polyrhythms support vocals in more than ten languages. This album presents a inspiring selection of the work of The Nile Project.
