DUBAI: Saudi singer and X Factor Middle East winner Hamza Hawsawi will open for Justin Bieber at his Dubai concert on May 6.
The concert is part of Bieber’s Purpose World Tour.
Hawsawi will open the show with Canadian duo Deen Squad at the Autism Rocks Arena.
The singer-songwriter, who won the reality show in 2015, recently released his first single, a smooth R’n’B track dubbed “Love a Little.” An all-English album is coming soon.
He made history by winning the reality show despite singing only in English.
Hawsawi, now based in Dubai, sings and writes his own material.
Deen Squad combine urban hip hop with spirituality, through songs such as Muslim Queen and Cover Girl. In 2015, the duo trended #MuslimsAreNotTerrorists worldwide with their song Muslim Man.
Bieber has earlier performed two Dubai concerts at the Sevens Stadium in 2013. The event next month is said to be the Canadian singer’s only regional performance.
