Biography
The music of Sudanese-Italian singer Amira Kheir, who has been tagged by BBC World News as the "diva of the Sudanese desert", is rooted in ancient Nubian and Niolitic melodies, and is confidently married with experimental jazz and bursts of electric desert blues. Dividing her time between the UK and Italy, she has performed at some of the world's biggest festivals and stages, including Womad (UK), Festival Au Desert (Mali) and the London Jazz Festival.
