Since its creation, Zico House has welcomed and supported approximately 250 cultural and artistic activities by Lebanese and foreign artists.
It all really started when Rami and I (Lana) wanted to audition for AUB outdoors, we both were a part of the music scene in Lebanon, but only as people in the crowd. We have always been obsessed with music, and always wanted to start a band. That’s when he and I joined forces. It was March, and we needed a drummer since we were just two silly guitarists who were way too ambitious starting out.
Beirut Street Festival teamed up with D-HACKERS CREW to bring the battle to the street.
