REPORT: Egyptian band 'Massar Egbari' performs in West Bank

Pumping out a mix of blues, jazz, rock and Oriental music, independent Egyptian band 'Massar Egbari' (Arabic for 'Compulsory Detour')  delighted audiences by playing their debut gig in the West Bank.

 The band, which consists of four musicians - Mahmoud Siam, Ahmed Hafez, Tamer Attallah and Ayman Massoud - have played several concerts around the world since they began in Alexandria in 2005, but guitarist Siam said this gig was different to any other they had done before.
