After being coined by The New Yorker as having “the Colgate white glisten of sixties girl group pop combined with an uncensored edge” for their acclaimed debut album, Habibi broke boundaries by introducing Farsi-sung tunes on their EP ‘Cardamom Garden’ that “shed rigid definitions of what constitutes American music” (Pitchfork). In 2020, a month before the world drastically changed, ‘Anywhere But Here’, the group’s prophetic sophomore album was released, prompting NPR’s Robin Hilton to call them a “noir girl-group.” As the world starts to re-emerge and awaken, the summer of 2021 is boding to be a hot one and Habibi is ready to dance.
