Cairo,
Egypt
Egyptian rock band fronted by Amir Eid whose songs became anthems of the 2011 revolution and remain a fixture of the region's alternative scene.
Formed in Cairo in the early 2000s, Cairokee moved from underground rock clubs to national prominence when tracks like "Sout Al Horeya" became associated with Egypt's 2011 uprising. The band has continued releasing music that blends rock instrumentation with socially engaged Arabic lyrics.
