BASSEL & THE SUPERNATURALS

Bassel & The Supernaturals tells the story of Ohio native Bassel Almadani's experience as a first generation Syrian-American using soulful melodies, funk inspired rhythms, and captivating lyrics of love, loss, and the war in Syria.  Deeply inspired by Otis Redding, the Bassel uses the stage as a vehicle to engage audiences in over 100 different cities across North America.  The band was featured on the nationally-acclaimed SXSW 2017 showcase 'ContraBanned: #MusicUnites' featuring artists from the diaspora of countries targeted by the travel ban. They've since been featured on PRI, Al Jazeera, Reuters, Paste Magazine, Huffington Post, NowThis, and many others. The album draws inspiration from artists such as Snarky Puppy, Jamiroquai, and Steely Dan's "Aja."  Bassel & The Supernaturals has performed in over 300 concerts between on stages including SXSW, John F. Kennedy Center, Summerfest, and Millennium Park, and supporting internationally touring artists such as Youssou N'Dour, Brother Ali, Aesop Rock, Emancipator, The Dandy Warhols, Sinkane, and many others.
