About
Sufian & Plush Rebel
Sufian & Plush Rebel build performances where song, image, and live texture move together as one language. Voice, keys, electronics, and projected film are treated as a single stage composition rather than separate layers.
The result stays intimate and physical while still feeling cinematic: stripped-back arrangements, slow-burning dynamics, and a visual world that opens gradually as the set unfolds.
Sufian is an oud player and composer from Tripoli, Libya. After having lived across different countries in the Mediterranean, he is now based in Germany.
Growing up immersed in Sufi and Andalusian celebrations and the diverse rhythms of his homeland, his music blends Middle Eastern maqamat, North African grooves, and Mediterranean melodies.
Currently, he is developing his debut album Wijdan, exploring a contemporary Libyan sound influenced by Oriental Jazz and global musical traditions. His work seeks to bridge cultures, reinterpret Libyan heritage, and introduce its rich sonic identity to the world.
