Bio / Background
"Dangerous...":
This is Charbel Rouhana's latest release (2006). The title of this CD reflects in itself the intricate times the artist is living in one of the most sensitive areas of the world: The Middle East. "Dangerous..." is how Charbel depicts the precarious political, economical, societal, musical and interpersonal spheres. He expresses those volatile states in 10 songs sometimes with humor sometimes with a melancholic approach but always with verve. He sings about travel and the difficulties in obtaining a Visa, about the country where the living is still easy, about the love of a woman, about coffee, about change and about the multifaceted society of Lebanon. This is Charbel Rouhana's first all songs album.
