The Mummies are an American garage punk band formed in San Bruno,
California, in 1988. Exhibiting a raw and lo-fi sound, dubbed "budget
rock", the Mummies' rebellious attitude and distinctive performance
costumes exerted an influence on garage punk and garage rock revival
acts later in the decade, as well as in the 1990s. Their recorded output
was intentionally completed with poor, cheap equipment, including their
first and only studio album Never Been Caught, which was released after
the group's initial break-up. Since then, the Mummies have engaged in
several reunion concerts and tours, including appearances in Europe and
the US sporadically through to recent years.
The Wolfmen were a 60's inspired garage rock band who used reverb sounding vocals and fuzzy guitar. - Blogatrix

Belgian-born singer,
multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and classical belly dancer Natacha
Atlas is possessed of a throaty, expressive alto and offers a
multilingual vocal approach to the fusion of Arabic and South Asian
musics with Western styles, from electronica to pop to jazz standards.
As a solo artist and in well-documented collaborations with more than
100 others (Peter Gabriel, Jean-Michel Jarre, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, and Belinda Carlisle
among them), her music was born from her family's heritage of Egyptian,
Palestinian, Moroccan, and Sephardic ethnicities. Her intensely
rhythmic vocal style was heard outside Europe first with Jah Wobble's Invaders of the Heart on the hit album Rising Above Bedlam in 1991. She served as lead vocalist and belly dancer with world fusion electro band Transglobal Underground,
starting with their dancefloor hit single "Temple Head." She is a
relentless experimenter. Her solo albums, beginning with 1995's
downtempo fusion set Diaspora, have charted across the Arab world. In 1998 she delivered an Arabic fusion cover of Françoise Hardy's pop chanson "Mon Amie en Rose" that charted in Europe. Her 2006 offering, Mish Maoul, wed Arabic, electronic, and organic beats to Latin sounds and bossa nova. In 2008 she fronted the traditional Arabic Mazeeka Ensemble on Ana Hina. She took on British folk with 2010's Riverman EP, that featured her charting cover of Nick Drake's signature tune alongside a host of club remixes. In 2016 she delved into jazz with Myriad Road, produced by trumpeter Ibrahim Maalouf, and Eros with Paolo Fresu and Omar Sosa. She has since performed with her old friends in Transglobal Underground while continuing to record on her own, releasing Strange Days in 2019.

TransGlobal Underground is a U.K.-based collective fusing as many different kinds of world music as its members can get their hands on. The group's core is composed of vocalist Natacha Atlas (who has recorded with Jah Wobble, Apache Indian, and her own band, Atlas Project), keyboardist Alex Kasiek, drum programmer Man Tu, and founder, bassist, and sampler Count Dubulah. The project grew out of a mutual love for dance, avant-garde, Arabic, and world music and draws on each member's listening tastes and cultural backgrounds. Their debut album, Dream of 100 Nations, was released in 1994, quickly followed by International Times. After 1995's Interplanetary Meltdown, TransGlobal Underground returned in 1997 with Psychic Karaoke. Rejoice, Rejoice followed a year later and Yes Boss Food Center appeared in spring 2001.
