new NO blues cd Hela Hela ..


NO blues started five years ago with a three day search for the crossroads of American flok blues and Arabic music. This music, which the musicians called Arabicana, became a succesfull genre and NO blues is now an established name in the world music scene. ‘Hela Hela’ is the fourth and last studio album made by the band. NO blues which started as a lab project by productiehuis ON finishes it’s search for a new musical genre with a new album and a tour in 2011 and 2012. Hela Hela is more than just a new album. On this record Ad van Meurs, Haytham Safia and Anne-Maarten van Heuvelen show that they are true masters of this new genre they created and they playfully ad an African flavour to the blend. The band takes the listener on a musical journey across several continents. On Hela Hela you find Palestinian guest musicians Morad Khoury on violin, and Shereene Danial as guest vocalist which ad strength and depth to the combination of American and Arabic musical tradition. This comes together perfectly in the title track Hela Hela based on a traditional Arabic work song and an American counterpart. This is the ultimate appeal to the world for working together. .Ankie Keultjes is sound engineer and sings backing vocals on many NO blues songs. She also helped producing the records and she sings lead vocals about vulnerability and budding love in Breaking the chain. Hela Hela is also the last NO blues studio album. The band and productiehuis ON agree that with the four albums ‘Farewell Shalabiye, Ya Dunya, Lumen and Hela Hela’ the new genre of Arabican has been discovered and defined.
AD VAN MEURS (guitar)
Ad van Meurs started his musical career in the 70s as pianist with the folk rock-band Deirdre. In 1982 he formed the successful new wave band W.A.T. who were uniquely remarkable because of their special fusion between the synthesizer and (slide) guitar. By 1988, armed with his guitar and rythmbox he soldiered on under the guise of The Watchman.

HAYTHAM SAFIA (Ud, Arabic lute)
Haytham Safia (1980) is from Kafr Yasif, a small town in Galilee. His passion for the U’d starts at an early stage. In 2001 he makes his debut as a performer in the Netherlands, where he acquires a firm position in the musical ensemble accompanying the Galili Dance Group: they tour through Europe. In 2002 he graduates with distinction at the Academy of Music and Dance in Jerusalem. Haytham Safia is in essence a classical Arabic musician, but his compositions and music are influenced by other musical styles such as Persian, Balkanian and jazz music.

ANNE-MAARTEN VAN HEUVELEN (double bass)
Anne-Maarten bought his first bass at the age of 15. His musical influence began with the blues but over the years he has been known to play jazz, punk, reggae and rock. After living and playing the gig circuit in New York he returned to the Netherlands as leadsinger and bass-player of the 50s style blues-band the Marbletones.
