El Besta brings the great names and rhythms of Raï to life in a live, acoustic setting. Hailing from the younger generation and bridging tradition and modernity, they pay tribute to Raï in the style of the old masters.

In the spirit of the gaadate atmospheres of western Algeria, the band takes its audience on a unique, intimate and festive journey. Their carefully curated repertoire revisits the classics of the genre whilst preserving their essence. A phenomenon on the current Algerian music scene, El Besta has been playing to sold-out crowds for over a year, both in Algeria and internationally.
