The Dubai-based band was born when vocalist Hamdan Al ABRI met keyboardist Julian Symes in 2005. Within two months, the duo had enough tracks to produce their first album and were then joined by Rami Lakkis and Andre Atherley.

Like the desert sun, ABRI's music seems to come from all corners; a blended heat that moves the core. Powerfully distinctive, the full extent of ABRI's talent is showcased on the band's debut album, Sunchild, released on November 1st, 2007. The album's 10 compelling tracks take listeners on a musical and lyrical journey, exploring real world issues that face us all.
