Discography
I'm proud to announce the release of my Album "At The Heart of Two Worlds".
The oud found me when I was a teenager. As a Lebanese-American, I grew
up listening to Middle Eastern music but as a teen, rock & roll
ruled. As the magnetic pull of heritage mixed with social upheaval and
the incredibly rich music scene of the late sixties, I was drawn to
bring the oud into the rock, blues and jazz scene that I had to come to
love. "At The Heart of Two Worlds"
is the culmination of all these influences. It is a true fusion that
reflects my experience and belief that all worlds have indeed, one
heart. With melody, feeling and driving percussion I feel sure that
this music will take you on a journey that will elevate all
cultures.....and all hearts.
