Born in Israel, but working most recently out of London, jazz bassist and composer Daphna Sadeh trained initially as a student of classical music at the Manhattan School of Music in New York.
After her graduation, she joined Israel's East West Ensemble, performing and recording with the group for some seven years. Her fascination and involvement with Middle Eastern and Arabic music began to be a central theme in her own compositions. Co-forming the group Eve's Women, Sadeh fused jazz, klezmer, and good old rock & roll into a pretty potent musical stew. Her first album, Out of Border, was released in 2002. That same year she formed her group the Voyagers, and proceeded to broaden her mix of styles even further, bringing in even more world music influences. She released Walking the Thin Line with the Voyagers in 2007 on 33 Jazz Records, following it with Reconciliation on John Zorn's Tzadik Records in 2009. ~ Steve Leggett
