Bassel & The SupernaturalS

Unplugged

Bassel & The Supernaturals is a nationally touring funk fusion ensemble on a humanitarian mission. Blending funky grooves and captivating lyrics with the rich melodies of soul and the playful intricacies of jazz, B&TS builds bridges across genres as well as cultures. Delivering an equally impactful performance as a scaled-back ensemble, B&TS Unplugged offers an intimate musical experience, fitting the vibes wherever they land. Their musical influence is as diverse as the stages they frequent. From coffee shops and outdoor markets, to classrooms and jazz clubs, to galas and cocktail lounges, they promote fellowship everywhere they go. 

Frontman Bassel Almadani, a first generation Syrian American singer, songwriter, and activist for radical empathy, shares his journey as the product of immigrants from Aleppo throughout the group’s dynamic, engaging live set. Their upcoming album, Backup Generation (summer 2027), rich with Almadani’s storytelling, weaves the group’s influences into an emotionally vast landscape of songs ranging from protest dance tracks to deeply personal neosoul ballads. Boasting features from fellow social activists including Grammy-nominated soul singer and rapper Maimouna Youssef (AKA Mumu Fresh), Emmy-nominated and SAG Award-winning actor and tap dancer Dule Hill, and award winning singer and composer Branjae, the group never falters from their charge – to build empathy through music and art.
