This is our meetup group’s second year. We like to get together with people who are interested in all kinds of Middle Eastern music - Arabic, Persian, Jewish, Turkish, Kurdish, …. - , have food and drinks, and go to concerts and performances around the Bay Area.
Above all, the meetup is about getting to meet people interested in sharing and exploring great music and having fun.
I personally like music from all over the middle east and really enjoy discovering new performers and local hotspots. I play santur / dulcimer, so I'd also be interested to meet other musicians to play together.

3. Become an assistant organizer
All questions / suggestions are welcome!

What: This is our fifth get together for SF Bay Area musicians / singers. We're evolving and starting to get a hang of how to play together, so come join us if you're interested in playing music from anywhere in the Middle East. All levels are welcome and everyone is encouraged to propose songs to play. Read more
