This is the 1st compilation album that will be release here in the middle east that use a concept of recording all the bands in one studio and giving them the raw + live feel of the music.

The Blacksheep Production and its roster’s have been playing shows around the UAE for over a year now.

You can usually catch us every other Saturday of the month playing at The Strong South Gig at the Alpha Club, Le Meridien Village, Garhoud , Dubai.
