Soundstorm festival in Saudi Arabia is one of the biggest festivals in the Middle East. It was created only a few years ago following the opening up of the public music scene in Saudi which was previously banned. Freddie spoke to Baloo, the creative director behind Soundstorm, about misconceptions of the Middle East, the illegality of same-sex sexual relationships and the criticism of ‘culture washing’. #soundstorm #mdlbeast #saudiarabi #fyp #learnontiktok
