Over the past two decades, I’ve been blessed to build a platform for genuine, heart-to-heart connection with the worldwide caravan of people who support my work. The music industry has opened and closed its doors to me several times, but I’ve always enjoyed the freedom to genuinely explore and express what I experience in myself and the world. I answer only to the people who rock with me, and their only requirement of me is sincerity.

In the past we’ve relied on live concerts to bring us together. If you’ve been to a Brother Ali show you know that not only is there a bond between me and the crowd, but the audience shares an experience together. People have met lifetime friends and spouses at our shows. Best believe I plan to get back on stage as soon as possible. But the pandemic taught us it’s possible and even necessary to reimagine the ways we connect. 

In the past year we did a live-streamed performance from my new home in Istanbul, dropped new music, launched a podcast, and introduced an online learning series. Each of these have given me and my tribe chances to see, hear, and share moments with each other. As we continue to make these things widely available to casual listeners, we’re creating space for you to engage with me and my work at a deeper level and have priority access to anything new my team and I have to offer.
