مفر

“Mafar” is a Palestinian alternative rock band that was formed in Palestine in 2014 and came with an idea of reforming the alternative music base and representing it in a special way in the Arab world. “Mafar” released its first album “Untitled – بلا عنوان” on July 2016 which consists of 9 tracks and “Visa – تأشيرة” consisting of 10 tracks. The band found a new way of merging the western music with eastern vocals creating a new musical character that is able to represent the reality and daily difficulties that faces the youth in the Arab world. 
 Internationally, “Mafar” ranked the second place among different Arab countries in the Arab Festival for Youth Music in Guelmim – Morocco and harvested three other individual prizes. 
 The Palestinian band “Mafar” is considered one of the pioneer bands that contributed in polishing the Arabic rock music and altering it in a different aspect. 
 “Mafar” as a band was able to establish a fan base in Palestine, Jordan, and finally Egypt considering it is still presenting alternative rock music in a different radical way close to the Arab youth of which was crowned by Mafar’s first new single for the year 2020 “Post-Apocalypse”.
