On this episode of Mafraj Radio, we meet Tair, Liron, and Tagel Haim, three Israeli sisters from a Yemeni Jewish family, who perform Yemenite folk music with a modern twist. Their band, A-WA, released their first video online last year, and have found eager audiences throughout Europe and the US, as well as at home in Israel.
A-WA's debut album, Habib Galbi, was released in June in the US by S-Curve Records. You can purchase the album on Amazon or iTunes, and learn more about the band on their website.
