Dudu Tassa & Jonny Greenwood - Taq ou-Dub (feat. Nour Freteikh) (Live At The Hamam)

New album 'Jarak Qaribak' out now: http://worldcircuit.lnk.to/JarakQarib...

Celebrated singer, musician and producer Dudu Tassa teams up with award-winning composer and guitarist Jonny Greenwood (Radiohead, The Smile) for new album ‘Jarak Qaribak’, bringing together vocalists and musicians from throughout the Middle East for a very special album of cross-border collaborations. ‘Taq ou-Dub’ features Palestinian singer Nour Freteikh.

Tassa and Greenwood share their comments on the collaboration: “The first song we recorded for this project was Taq ou-Dub. It’s an old Lebanese song, now performed by Nour Freteikh and in fact it was the starting point for the entire album, connecting Ramallah, Tel Aviv, Beirut and Oxford. Nour, such an incredible singer, first recorded her vocal track remotely but eventually the three of us got together in person to rehearse and perform – and connect properly. We feel very lucky – and very proud – to have made a song, and a friendship, with such a remarkable musician as Nour.”
