The Invisible Hands
is the English translation of the band's original Egyptian Arabic name:
El Ayadi El Khafeyya
. Taking almost two years to create amidst an unusual and challenging backdrop, this is the brand new project of
Alvarius B.
(
Alan Bishop
of
Sun City Girls
). Eleven highly-crafted new songs projected through his typically dark lens of songwriting and a band of brilliant musicians from Cairo, the premier, self-titled CD version of this album is the English language vocals edition (see below) delivered in AB's patented sinister style; drenched in lovely psychedelic folk arrangements and vocal choruses with a nod to what could have potentially been an album that surfaced decades ago but instead found its way into the future superimposed over historic and tumultuous times in the center of the Arab world. The group was established during the summer of 2011 and the album was recorded in Cairo in May of 2012. Band members include
Cherif El Masri
and
Aya Hemeda
(both former members of popular Egyptian group
Eskenderella
) with drummer
Magued Nagati
. On a handful of songs, several other players from the Cairo scene are featured including
Sam Shalabi
(
Shalabi Effect
/
Land Of Kush
) on oud and
Mohamed Medhat
on violin and viola. All tracks written and sung by Alvarius B. in English. Note: This is the English language CD version of the album. An Arabic language CD version will only be available to purchase in the Middle East. Both English and Arabic language versions will be available for digital download and both versions together will be available as a limited edition 2LP in the very near future.
