Khamsin was originally formed in 1996 and released their first album, “KHAMSIN,” in 1998. After a long hiatus, the band was reborn and welcomed two new members in 2017. Their second album, “Blue Hour,” was released the following year.
They say each member has their own sound and groove, which gives the band a special and unique sound. Listen to part of their recent performance in June 2023 here: https://youtu.be/hYQm3NhDyss
