Wednesday, 30 July 2008 |
ArabiA started as an idea
among a few young Metal Heads about ten years back. Lead Guitar &
Vocalist Shabeeb Al Harami was serious about it. A few years later Shabeeb
and Guitarist Nasser Bahwan and DrummerTariq A.Rahman started jamming
together and honed their skills. Nasser eventually left the band and Bassist Kumail
came on board; shortly after Tariq left as well. Shabeeb and Kumail
shouldered the mission of molding ArabiA's existence from the artwork and merchandise,
to their main love of making the music and promoting the band through local radio stations and newspapers.
After the release of their first CD The Black Pearl in August 2007, Shabeeb's nephew
Guitarist Tariq Al Harami and Keyboard Player Saeed Al Mahmoodi joined ArabiA.
ArabiA's equipment was made up of humble beginnings: only one guitar, one amp, a basic drum set with
just a single pedal. People began buying ArabiA's music and
merchandise and they tasted success. They now have their our own studio and
much more equipment. They are proud of their first album, which they
accomplished without any outside help. They composed the logo, CD artwork,
and T-shirts, controlled every aspect right down to making and packing the
CD's. Like a small plant that branches out through God's mercy and grace, ArabiA is growing.
ArabiA's second CD is nearly ready for release. The group is actively looking for
a Drummer as Shabeeb has been pulling double duty for the time being. |
