Biography

Adonis is a Lebanese pop-rock band renowned for its signature Arabic lyrics and blistering live performances. The four-piece was formed in 2011 by Anthony Adonis (vocals, keys) and Joey Abou Jawdeh (guitar). The pair, who met during their architecture studies at the American University of Beirut, were later joined by Nicola Hakim on drums and Gio Fikany on bass guitar. The band first came into sight with its debut single “Stouh Adonis” (2012). Adonis has since released 6 studio albums, and performed at major venues and independent festivals across the Arab world, such as the Carthage Festival (Tunisia), the Baalbeeck Festival (Lebanon), the Amman Roman Amphitheatre, and Dubai’s Step Music Festival. The band’s third album “Nour” (2017) consecrated Adonis as a leading player in the Arabic independent music scene, after achieving its first breakthrough with the album’s lead single “Eza Shi Nhar”. In July 2019, Adonis launched its fourth album “12 Sa'a” and kicked off its first European tour. Two years later, after the release of its critically-acclaimed fifth studio album “A’da” (2021), the band played two milestone concerts at the Beirut Hippodrome and on the Dubai 2020 Expo Jubilee Stage, and performed three sold-out shows at Paris’ Arab World Institute. Adonis released its sixth studio album “Hadis El Layl” (Night Talks) in November 2022.
