Tamino is a Belgian singer/songwriter who rose to international fame in the late 2010s with his blend of dark, moody indie rock and classical Arabic melodic accents. Born and raised in Belgium and of Egyptian and Lebanese heritage, his sound reflects his own complex identity, and his idiosyncratic style soon made fans of artists like Lana Del Rey, who invited him on tour, and Radiohead's Colin Greenwood, who appeared on his debut album, 2018's Amir. Tamino's sophomore set, 2022's Sahar, followed the quietly cinematic lead of the debut and culminated with a 2023 performance at the Great Pyramid of Giza. Basing himself in New York, he recorded his third album, which was heralded by the 2024 single "Babylon."
