El Khat plays traditional Arabic-Yemeni folk music in an exciting, modern way on an array of unique instrumentation.

El Khat

In 2019, El Khat began honing their sound in garages and warehouses. Experimenting with DIY, self-made instruments as an expression of a minimalist life philosophy—while remaining loyal to traditional Yemeni percussive roots—the three-piece developed a unique Arabic-Yemeni style. With three albums behind and a fourth to be released in 2026, El Khat continues to forge a sound that bridges past and present—keeping Yemeni culture alive while reimagining its future.

“El Khat make joyful clatter…everything is recycled metal, plastic or wood, all coming together in a funeral march that sounds like a huge, disgruntled anima shaking itself into life” ★★★★ Financial Times
