Nasser el-Mizdawi

Nasser Al-Mezdawi (Arabic: ناصر المزداوي), (born 5 September 1950) is a Libyan singer, guitarist, songwriter and composer.

Mezdawi's first band Annusur, translates to The Eagles, released their first album "Ughniyat an Elghurba" in 1975 gaining instant popularity that rewarded them their first gold record.

Mezdawi went on to participate in several international music festivals, giving concerts in Mexico, Cuba, USA, Portugal Malta and Greece.

This distinguished guitarist who survived trends, hype and persecution is one of few consistent composers, singers/songwriters that have put their mark, permanently, in the history of music in the region.

The progressive sound remained local for the most part but Mezdawi's music broke into the international market through other Arab and European performers.
