AL QAHWA

The group name Al Qahwa is Arabic for “the coffee house”. It was inspired by the coffee house culture in the Middle East where people would go to hear the latest news, music, poetry and stories. The repertoire began with traditional songs from Syria, Egypt and Iraq. Then the group started adding original repertoire by members of the band.

Al Qahwa’s recording “Weyn Allah” was made with support from The Toronto Arts Council and The Ontario Arts Council. It was released in June 2023 followed by a Canadian tour. “Weyn Allah” was nominated for FMO’s ACTRA RACS award for best recording artists; and CFMA’s “Oliver Schroer’s Pushing The Boundaries” award.
