On Friday, America’s Got Talent Season 17 winners the Mayyas debuted their first music video. The mesmerizing dance group appears in the new project, titled “HORRA,” directed by their founder and choreographer Nadim Cherfan.
AGT Winners the Mayyas Premiere New Music Video
The Mayyas’ new music video has a cinematic quality, as the all-female dance group performs in a variety of ethereal scenes. The dancers show off the incredible synchronization that won them the title on AGT last year.
At one point, the dancers are reflected in a pool of water as they make beautiful shapes with their arms. In another moment, they can be seen moving their arms on a staircase shot from below. Arguably the most stunning scene involves the dancers waving red and yellow fabric that looks like fire.
The entire video is set to beautiful music composed by Harry Hedeshian, with gorgeous costumes styled by Christy Samaha. Parts of the video were shot at Sursock Palace in the Mayyas’ home country of Lebanon.
Be sure to check out the full music video on YouTube.

What Has the Group Been Up to Since the Show?
The Mayyas earned a Golden Buzzer from AGT judge Sofia Vergara during Season 17 of the show. They went on to earn America’s vote to win the $1 million prize. They’ve since delivered even more incredible performances around the world.
That includes a performance in Saudi Arabia’s capital, Riyadh. Notably, they also performed with none other than Beyoncé at an event in Dubai to celebrate the opening of a new luxury resort called Atlantis the Royal.
Before appearing on AGT, the dance group earned a Golden Buzzer on the sixth season of Arabs Got Talent and went on to win the competition. That means they’re two-time Got Talent winners.
