From day one of hearing these mics at the NAMM convention we fell in love with these microphones and headphones! We love our paid or CC8 mics for our drum overheads and our HiX65 headphones in the mixing room! The gear is so solid and well-made!

“The Hajj” is a two-piece Psychedelic Eastern Jam Punk band formed by brothers Philip and Freddie, originating from Limassol, Cyprus, with Armenian and Lebanese heritage. Their musical odyssey began in Saudi Arabia during their youth, exposing them to diverse soundscapes and fostering a passion for creating distinctive melodies. They officially embarked on their musical career in Ottawa, Canada, in 2000 with their first band, Clepto, expanding their influences. Relocating to Southern California in 2010, they established “The Hajj” in 2017, touring extensively across the United States, Canada, and Cyprus, with over 300 shows to their credit.

Their sound blends cultural roots with heavy Punk and Rock elements, characterized by live improvisation and meaningful lyrics. Operating as a DIY band, they independently tour, record, and release music. With one album and a split Vinyl record released “The Hajj” aims to push their musical journey to new heights, inviting listeners to join them on their unique pilgrimage of blending heritage, punk attitude, and rock ‘n’ roll spirit.
