Fini will be joined for this very special, one-off night by Amena & Rosa Witts.
Amena is a talented singer and songwriter from Cairo, Egypt. Growing up in the vibrant city, she developed a love for both Arabic and Jazz music. She aims to bring together the best of both worlds creating music that blends her cultural roots with the harmony and rhythms of Jazz. In her newest project, she's drawing inspiration from pioneers of early Egyptian/Levantine Folk music like Sayed Darwish and Rahbani Brothers. She's set to infuse their timeless compositions with her own twist, in addition to channeling their spirit in her own original compositions.
