My band fajjr+ali recently sat down with The Mosquers on their podcast The Halal Gap to talk. We chatted with hosts Sofia and Sikandar about our backgrounds in theatre, the challenges that come with being Muslims making pop music, and people assuming we're married. Fresh off the release of our new single, “I’m Fine”, we also give us a look inside their collaborative process. Listen to the podcast wherever you listen to podcasts or watch the interview here.

I'm excited to announce the newest single from fajjr+ali - "I'm Fine". We wrote the song to talk about the dark side of social media. We all fall into the trap of feeling like we need to post and show off our best lives on social media but in reality, the constant need can negatively affect our mental health. The song starts off upbeat but slowly gets darker and darker and enters a dark pop realm. Take a listen to this song and the rest of our music here. I'm excited to be working with my friend and frequent collaborator Leonie Bell on her new piece Sonntags wird gelogen Or We Only Lie on Sundays. In this dark humor Tanztheater landscape, matriarchal lineages converge and convene with mistranslations, misunderstandings, mundane anecdotes, and your weird neighbor. Cacophonies of choral song and pedestrian movement; performed in German, English, & Denglish. Peformances are December 2nd – 12th at The Brick Theater in Brooklyn. More information here! |
