Myriad Road is a 2015 jazz album by Natacha Atlas. The album was composed and produced by Ibrahim Maalouf,[1] with additional songs written by Natacha Atlas and Samy Bishai. The album, which is Atlas' first jazz record, features songs in both English and Arabic.[1]
The album was first conceived in 2011 when Atlas and Maalouf met at a concert in Istanbul. Maalouf wanted to create a work that would avoid the characteristics of her earlier electropop albums which emphasized traditional costumes and belly dancing.[2] [3]
