Middle aged performers travel from small villages to the city, weaving through the streets with tambourines, fresh grass and sticks in hand and voices raised. They share the melodies of holiday tradition, singing songs that mark the spirit of Irreecha and the upcoming Mesqel festival, their cheerful rhythms coaxing coins and smiles from passersby. In each note, they carry the hopes of their villages, the joy of celebration, and a reminder that the city, even in its rush, pauses to listen to the music of its roots.
