Where did the name Autostrad come from?
Autostrad means highway which you need to take while traveling to a far destination. During your trip you might see beautiful meadows on one side of the road or rough mountains on the other. And perhaps face some bumps and obstacles along the way. Autostrad describes our diverse music style, which is inspired by different genres such as reggae, funk, Rai, Latin and rock, and it also describes the variety of themes that we talk about in our lyrics such as stories of love, struggle, financial challenges , drug abuse, and finding oneself.

What was the biggest challenge in doing Red Bull Symphonic?
The biggest challenge is having 60 different musicians on stage that all need to be synced. It is a challenge for us as well to be able to adapt to the new Harmony while keeping the original style of the song alive.
Why have you chosen the 10 songs in the selected setlist?
Well, we wanted to have all our songs played with the Orchestra but considering the time limitations we chose the most relevant and dearest songs to our hearts.
If you weren’t full-time musicians, what would you be doing?
Open: Football player with AL-Faisali

What inspires you to write music?
Our music and lyrics are inspired by Everyday life in Jordan and the Arab world, where we tackle a lot of issues related to love, self-discovery, struggles, and more.
We believe that our role as musicians has become needed, now more than ever, to touch on the pains and dreams of the regions youth, who are in search of a way to improve their lives.
How was your experience collaborating with Dr. Maestro Haitham for Red Bull Symphonic?
We are very happy and proud of this collaboration. Some of us met Dr. Haitham a long time ago; he was the university mentor for some of us and it feels amazing to be able to work with such talent and expertise.

They will absolutely love it! its a great experience that everyone will enjoy as it is the first Collaboration ever in Jordan between an indie rock band and an orchestra, as well as getting to hear their favorite songs played with 60 other musicians.
