Peter Kfoury is a Lebanese-American who grew up listening to Middle Eastern music. While in his teens, he started playing the oud, the direct ancestor of the lute and the principal instrument in the Middle East. Over time, he has played not only the traditional Arabic music, but has used all of the influences of the American melting pot to develop a unique style which fuses Middle Eastern influences with jazz, pop and even funk. Kfoury believes that music and art are the difference between merely existing and being truly alive, Ohm Radio writes. He has two albums currently available with a third to be released in April 2024. “At The Heart of Two Worlds” and “Breaking All The Rules” are available on Spotify, Amazon, iTunes and Apple Music.
