The Elephants Fly In Iraq With Nasrat Albadr




This is the title of hip Iraqi up and coming blues singer Nasrat Albadr, the guy sounds very Iraqi, but he sounds like he is mimicking someone who is a lot older than himself. But Nasrat is doing the very unique Iraqi style of blues. They have lived under sad reality and it has creeped into their music so beautifully and naturally. Nasrat is one \of those voices that is mroe famous among Iraqi musicians than among the casual fans.
