An Audience with Shaam

After a four year hiatus SHAAM are back and proud to present a series of events billed as "An Audience with SHAAM”. Although the group have not been out of the public limelight due to consistently working the road with their live shows, the pioneers of traditional Nasheeds wanted to offer their audiences a unique opportunity, by presenting to them spiritually uplifting evenings by performing timeless and classic hits, as well as nasheeds from their new and latest album “SHAAM The Early Years” The evenings will also feature previews from their highly anticipated studio album “Celebrate Life” due to be released in summer 2010.

Due to popular demand these events also host the UK exclusive launch of the new “DUFF” (Islamic Hand Drum) by SHAAM. This affords the listener to not only revel in the mastery of the groups duff playing on the night, but to take something away with them and for those budding nasheed artists to play this instrument for themselves.

Also featuring with SHAAM live, will be world class percussionists and special Guests

Dr Abdal Hakim Murad, Ahmed Bostan, Khaleel Muhammad, and introducing Muslim Belal and Manaqib.

SHAAM are the UK’s leading Nasheed Group with a truly global following. They have handpicked venues across the country which are both intimate and personable,

“As much as we enjoy performing in venues like Symphony Hall and The Royal Albert Hall, the down sides to these large venues are not being able to see and communicate with the audience as much as we would like to,” say SHAAM.

The five venue tour will commence in Rochdale on Sunday 11th Oct 2009 and will continue in Bradford, Glasgow, Birmingham and conclude in London.

With a conscience effort to support up and coming talent, and in trying to pave the way for future Artists SHAAM have encouraged many talent spotting competitions across the country to afford an opportunity for the young and the old alike to take the main stage on this tour to showcase and share their talent.

Tour dates:

October 11th - Rochdale The Gracie Field Theatre

November 5th - Bradford St Georges Hall
