The Definitive Guide to Living in the Capital , Cairo , Egypt

Watching concert videos online, have you ever wished you could be there with these people, enjoying your favourite music and singing your heart out with them? There’s a way to do that without breaking the bank.

Tribute bands give their audience a fantastic experience. You get to enjoy great live music, be among like-minded people, and experience the atmosphere of the original artist. Tribute bands aren’t new to Egypt. In addition to the few ones that emerged in the last few years, some have been around for some time.

Broken Mold, Tribute to Billie Eilish

‘Was I made from a broken mould?’ is Billie Eilish’s iconic lyric that inspired this band’s name. From El Sawy to New Cairo and Maadi, Broken Mold did multiple shows, bringing Billie’s amazing music and vibes to her loyal fans in Egypt. The band seamlessly delivers that soul-striking quality of Billie’s music, and their energy on stage is blissfully infectious. Check their TikTok and Instagram regularly for updates on their upcoming performances.

Brooklyn Babies, Tribute to Lana Del Rey

This band named themselves after Lana’s great single Brooklyn Baby because they can play almost anything. Their shows all over Cairo are always a huge hit. They turn that Summertime Sadness into pure musical delight.

So far, they have had nine shows, and now it’s time for their big tenth. Join them on August 23rd at El Sawy Culturewheel at 7 pm for an unforgettable night and help them celebrate their tenth show. For tickets, check the link in their Instagram bio.

Anti-Heroes, Tribute to Taylor Swift

Following the release of the album Midnights and the announcement of the Eras tour, the band became every Egyptian Swiftie’s hero by bringing the Eras tour to Egypt themselves. With all the different eras, full of outfit changes and everything, their shows are even better than your Wildest Dreams, and if you’re lucky enough to listen to their rock version of Look What You Made Me Do, you will be a changed person by the last strum. To find out when they will be performing again, make sure to follow their Instagram.

Kara’s Flowers, Tribute to Maroon 5

What a clever way of making your band known to the true Maroon 5 fans! Naming the tribute band the same name that Maroon 5 originally called themselves is as good as the tribute band’s music, but only the music tops this smart move. If you missed Maroon 5’s concert in Egypt, don’t worry, Kara’s Flowers are constantly doing new shows. Follow their Instagram to catch the next one.

Strawberry Swing, Tribute to Coldplay

It doesn’t get more classic than with Strawberry Swing. They are one of the oldest tribute bands in Egypt.
