Out Of Nations is a dream for a future world where humanity comes before nationality. Founded by composer/reeds player Lety ElNaggar and producer/engineer Khalil Chahine, the band breathes new life into familiar genres by playing original, danceable World Music rooted in pop, funk & jazz. Live, the band invites audiences on a journey through Middle Eastern and Latin inspired Electro-Acoustic grooves — a soundtrack to match the visual wonderland they create on stage. -- **Press** “Quest is one of the most entertainingly eclectic releases of recent months. It’s hard to find a playlist that works this well as party music as it does as headphone record." – Alan Young, New York Music Daily (USA) “Quest lacks for nothing. The 11-track LP is a musical world tour. They lead their compositions in a no man’s land where traditions and styles fade and merge...a treasure trove of influences and genres." – Marco Canepari, Rhythm Passport (UK) “Quest is a spectacular world music album that wanders with ease and elegance between propulsive, rhythmically dynamic global beats; melodies from various traditions and vibrant jazz-rock fusion.“ – Angel Romero, World Music Central (USA) “Quest, the debut album from Out Of Nations, doesn’t reach for the sledgehammer in protesting the problems of our time, but uses musicality and artistry to allow the quieter moments of this longplayer to develop into something intense and long-lasting – the power lies in these quiet moments. And this notwithstanding, all the wonderfully playful and polished musicianship of the album, which will hopefully be followed by many more.” -- Dominique Dombert-Pelletier, Soultrain (DE)
