A-Wa

The Yemenite-Israeli sister trio Tair, Liron, and Tagel Haim, also known as A-WA, took the world by storm singing in the Yemenite-Arabic dialect while mixing electronic dance music, hip-hop beats with folkloric and original melodies. Growing up in the remote village of Shaharut (in the Arava valley of Israel) gave way for a unique childhood with the barren desert landscape providing a blank canvas of sorts for boundless creativity.
