El Khat concert
El Khat, blending minimalist philosophy with traditional Yemeni roots, played on Thursday, April 16, 2026, at 7 p.m. at the Blue LLama Jazz Club in Ann Arbor. Their unique Arabic-Yemeni style takes you on a rich journey between past and present.
Formed in 2019, El Khat uses self-made instruments inspired by Yemeni percussion traditions. Despite distancing themselves from any nationality, their music remains deeply connected to Yemeni culture, creating a new identity shaped by war and migration. With three albums released and a fourth expected in 2026, El Khat keeps evolving a sound that honors the past and reimagines the future.
The concert started at 7 p.m. on April 16 at Blue LLama Jazz Club in Ann Arbor.
