Hani Naser Biography
Hani Naser
Born in Jordan, Hani had spent many days as a child with his grandfather, who was the
village poet. They would go together, high up into the mountains all the while listening to
stories, poetry, songs, and the Rababa, which is an ancient stringed instrument, a
predecessor to our violin. At a very young age Hani and his family sailed the open seas to
America. Growing up on the East Coast, Hani experienced music from many cultures.
Hani is an adventurer who has traveled along many musical highways throughout the
world, living and playing its music. Hani has performed and recorded with many of the
leading and most influential musicians of his time, including Nickey Hopkins (Rolling
Stones), Jackson Brown, Bonnie Raitt, Santana, Ry Cooder, Paco D'Lucia, Steve Miller,
John Hiatt, Ben Harper, Warren Zevon, Los Lobos, Violent Femmes, Don Henley, Brian
Ritchie, Tony Trischka, Hamza El Din, David Broza, David Lindley, and many other
amazing and wonderful musicians from around the world. Hani has significantly expanded
the musical resources in several idioms of music. Reviewing a concert featuring David
Lindley and Hani Naser, Los Angeles Times music critic Randy Lewis writes: "David
Lindley and Hani Naser make a convincing case for the essence of musical forms and in
the process they have produced an enduring testament to the timeless flexibility and
resonance of the Middle Eastern, Flamenco, Rock and Roll, Jazz and Blues forms."
Throughout his life, Hani has felt a wholeistic sense of musical experience that needed to
be expressed on a global level. "Exploring the spirit side of music has been a quest in life.
Hani is not bound by any musical traditions, but unites the music of the spheres and the
music of the soul." - LA Times During seven years of touring around the world as a duo
with David Lindley, two albums were recorded and released. Currently, Hani is producing
a solo album and an album series. Featuring collaborations with renowned artists such as
Hamza El Din, Paco D'Lucia, Ravi Shankar,David Grisman, Brian Ritchie and Tony
Trischka. Also at this time, a special performance series called 'The Power Spot Concert
Series' is in pre-production. Some of the artists mentioned above in the biography section
will be participating and artistically supporting this project
