Biography[edit]
Xêro Abbas was born in 1962 in the city of Qamişlo in Western Kurdistan and completed elementary, middle and high school.[1] Abbas immigrated to Germany in 1986 due to pressure from the Syrian regime and lack of opportunities.[1] Thereafter, his interest in music increased. In 1989, he started his musical activities by joining Koma Berxwedan. In 1998, he published his first album called Xerîbo, which has great interest among the Kurds. Abbas performs concerts in various European cities.[1]
In 2002, he appeared on stage in the great Newroz of Diyarbakir, which was attended by about a million Kurds. After many years, he returned to the land of Kurdistan for the first time with this medium and on his return he kissed his land and this attitude of his was welcomed by the people with great enthusiasm and love.[citation needed]
Abbas combines the classical style of Kurdish music with a modern base and with this structure he brings out a style that is both related to his own path and at the same time a modern style. This talent of Abbas strengthens both his position and his reputation.[citation needed]
