Sami Moukaddem Quartet

Born in Lebanon, the engaging guitarist and composer Sami Moukaddem "draws fruitfully on his Middle Eastern heritage to create this fascinating jazz hybrid.”-The Irish Times. High praise for the adopted Dubliner, whose music incorporates vivid imagery from his formative experiences growing up in the Lebanon and his relationship at one remove from the social, political and humane concerns of his homeland. A musical tagine that marries original tunes with Arabic grooves, and seasoned by Irish, Lebanese, and Spanish musicians, with Brendan Doyle (tenor), Jose Carlos (bass), and Robbie Harris (perc)
