His band will be preceded by well-known local cover band, Flashdrive at 7pm as Nightfall continues its tradition of offering free, family-friendly concerts every Friday through July 4.
Born in London to Sudanese parents and raised in America, real name Ahmed Gallab is a musician known for blending Sudanese pop with elements of krautrock, prog rock, electronica, free jazz, and funk rock to create his signature feel-good vibes.
A lifelong collaborator and curator of music, Gallab was nominated in 2024 as Best Composer, Lyricist or Book Writer by the Stage Debut Awards for his composition work on “The Enormous Crocodile,” which debuted in Leeds, UK. His music often explores themes of displacement, identity, and community, drawing inspiration from his diverse background and experiences.
