NÂR is a Lebanese multi-instrumentalist, singer and composer based in Beirut. In a constant metamorphosis, she works with various instruments, her voice and different objects she finds. Abrasive, hypnotic, NÂR’s performances are sonic experiments and live improvisations built up from A to Z, often led by short sentences on repeat like mantras. Her music takes its roots in a very large spectrum of sounds, inspiration or genre such as middle eastern and north African trance, industrial and electronic music. In 2022, NÂR took a more radical direction and created her Time machine. A handcrafted instrument composed of old clocks, bells and other metallic objects giving birth to a new dimension in her practice and allowing more rawness to her sound.
