Snakeskin (Julia Sabra & Fadi Tabbal)

SNAKESKIN is a Beirut-based duo making electronic dream-pop that blends ambient, industrial, and experimental elements. The project brings together producer and musician Fadi Tabbal and singer-songwriter Julia Sabra, also a member of the indie trio Postcards.

The duo’s third album We live in sand will be out on October 10, 2025 as a co-release between Ruptured and Beacon Sound. Written as the war in Gaza spread to Lebanon, it is their starkest and most immediate work to date, combining industrial beats, ambient dirges, and Sabra’s distinctive vocals.

Their self-titled debut (Beacon Sound/Ruptured, 2022) was written in the aftermath of the Beirut port explosion and introduced their textured, atmospheric sound. They Kept Our Photographs (Mais Um Records, 2024) expanded their palette, incorporating noisier production and excursions into hyperpop and electronica, while Sabra’s lyrics engaged more directly with the region’s ongoing violence.
