Bio / Background
Doc Jazz is a Palestinian born in exile in 1968 in the Netherlands, and is a surgeon by profession. In the Netherlands, he is also well known under his real name (Tariq Shadid) as a writer, speaker and debater on TV and radio for the Palestinian cause. Besides this, he is a songwriter, musician and singer.
Originally, all of Doc Jazz's songs were written, played, sung and recorded by himself in his home studio (demo quality). Publishing these demos on the web under the umbrella of his website project 'The Musical Intifadah', these demos were frequently downloaded, and the website became a well-known beacon of musical resistance.
Recently, Doc Jazz has released his new CD 'Front Door Key', on which 12 of these songs were professionally produced by Forrest Thomas, featuring a stunning array of professional musicians, like Susanne Alt (alto saxophone), Michelle David (backing vocals), Keith Keyes (bass) and Eddie Conard (percussion).
↓ more ↓This has resulted in a unique album, where strong lyrics, passionate vocals, smooth rhythms and jazzy melodies blend together in a harmonious and funky style that sounds new, but at the same time brings back the creativity and purity of the music of the late 70's and 80's.
Next to guitar, piano, bass and drums, Doc Jazz also plays the Ud (arabic lute), the shibbabeh (Palestinian flute) and the darbekkeh (hand drum). In all tracks, he is featured on lead vocals, but also on guitar, keys and the shibbabeh in some of the songs.
This music will give you a peaceful and jazzy atmosphere if you put its mellow sounds at a low volume, doing whatever it is you are doing … but if you turn it up, and let the music take you away, you will be moved, rocked and challenged.
