The ever charming Iraqi superstar, Kazem el Saher, will be gracing Auckland, New Zealand with his presence this month.
Lucky Auckland residents will have the opportunity to attend Kazem's one-night-only concert on Saturday, November 19.
The 59-year-old's concert is a "rare occasion which attracts fans from different Arabic backgrounds," according to the event's organizer, Sam Siddawi.
"Kazem is one of the most respected artists in the Middle East and his concert is expected to be the largest Arab cultural event here, drawing fans from a wide variety of Middle Eastern backgrounds," Siddawi said.
"We also hope to showcase to New Zealanders that the region is also not just about war."
Kazem, who is also a popular judge on the reality TV show The Voice Arabia, established himself as one of the most listened-to Arabic singers after releasing his first solo "Ya Ward Al Ishiq" in 1981.
He has 24 music albums to his name and has performed hundreds of sold-out concerts in his 30 years as an artist.
"Kazem is one of the greatest, if not the greatest Iraqi vocalist, and sings the lyrics of top Arab poets," Siddawi added.
This will mark Kazem's second visit to Auckland, and his show here will conclude a world tour that covered Canada, the US and Australia.
