Mohamed Arafa

Mohamed was born in Alexandria in 1966. From a very young age he began paying the darabouka. In 1989 he came to Greece where he began his professional career. He has cooperated with the biggest names in the record industry in various types of Greek music. In the period '95-'99 he was a member of the group of Haig Yazdjian. During the same period he participated in the concerts of the group of Michalis Nikoloudis and Omar Faruk Tekbilek. He has cooperated with Charoula Alexiou, Yiannis Parios, Anna Visy, Pashalis Terzis and many others. Now he is a member of the group of Makis Ablianitis.

Moving with ease from one side of the Greek music to the other, he has met many musicians. When he announced that he wanted to make a record, all his friends offered to give him compositions. This record was published on October 2003 with title ARRAS. ARRAS is Arabia in all its glory! But not as simple as that. Arabia that meets Armenia and Pontos, as well as the "flamenco"! In the production of the album we find Haig Yazdjian. ARRAS is fire from the first to the last of the total 65 minutes. And of course focus to Mohamed's 3 solos and listen how a percussionist can play melody!
