Episode 109: Dida Pelled

An intense jazz program, Feeling fun, and being hands on with everything you do. Dida Pelled

“BROOKLYN-BASED, NATIVE TEL-AVIVIAN, DIDA PELLED, IS WIDELY REGARDED AS THE GREATEST JAZZ GUITARIST THIS SIDE OF THE MISSISSIPPI. PELLED’S AMBITIONS TOOK SHAPE AS A CHILD, WHEN, ENTRANCED BY BEBOP, SHE SEQUESTERED HERSELF FROM THE WORLD AND RESOLVED TO MASTER GUITAR, LATER EARNING A SPOT IN THE ISRAELI ARMY BAND BEFORE TRAINING AT THE NEW SCHOOL ON A SCHOLARSHIP TO STUDY JAZZ. SHE QUICKLY MADE A NAME FOR HERSELF IN THE NEW YORK JAZZ SCENE, RECORDING WITH JAZZ MASTERS LIKE ROY HARGROVE AND GREGORY HUTCHINSON AND TOURING THE WORLD. AS HER JAZZ STAR ROSE, PELLED FELT A PULL TOWARD CLASSIC AMERICAN SONGWRITING, SHIFTING HER DIRECTION AND REDEFINING HER VOICE. LOVE OF THE TIGER, PELLED’S UPCOMING ALBUM, IS THE PRODUCT OF A JAZZ PRODIGY GONE ROGUE. IT IS A LOVE LETTER TO THE OBSCURE, WEAVING ACROSS GENRES, TWISTING AND TURNING WITH PELLED’S EVER-EXPANDING RANGE OF MUSICAL ABILITIES AND INTERESTS.” Excerpt from https://didamusic.com
