Hamptons Jazz Fest Presents Galeet Dardashti and Divahn

Hamptons Jazz Fest presents Middle Eastern vocalist and composer Galeet Dardashti and the all-female Mizrahi band Divahn. Together, the all-woman musical group celebrate Middle Eastern heritage, infusing traditional songs with sophisticated harmonies, funky arrangements, and entrancing improvisations. From music festivals, to live television and radio programs, Divahn has sparked international interest and welcomed audiences to a beautiful sphere of multiculturalism. As the lead singer of the edgy all-woman Mizrahi ensemble Divahn, Dardashti entrances audiences and lends dimension to the group with her diverse background.

Granddaughter to the premier voice of Persian classical music, Yona Dardashti, and daughter to the esteemed cantor Farid Dardashti, Dardashti is the first woman in her family to continue the tradition. She has performed through the US and Israel, producing significant cantorial work and gaining an international following. Following in the footsteps of her family’s esteemed legacy and creating her own legendary path to pursue, Dardashti arrives to The Church during a time of cultural significance and prepares us all for the coming year. Her sultry delivery, depth of cultural respect, and the ensemble’s fusion world music is sure to have a lasting impression that lingers with listeners.

Hamptons Jazz Fest and The Church are deeply grateful to The Conservative Synagogue of the Hamptons | The Bridge Shul for their generous sponsorship of this event.
