Adham Roshdy - Solo Project
2001-Present
Vocalist, Bassist, Keyboardist, Composer and Music Producer
Recorded an underground non-commercial EP, titled The Silent Experience, which was featured on a local radio station in 2004. The album’s genre carried a New Age direction, and it wasn’t written for sale or a live performance, but was rather an expression of a different musical direction. In 2011, Adham started experimenting and writing new songs with a few more genres, mainly Funk-Rock. The songs were composed, arranged and produced by him, and so were the lyrics, singing and the music performed. He usually features Egyptian guitarists/band mates like Rami Sidky, Karim Youssef and Sherif Watson. So, don't be surprised if songs from the solo project pop up in one of his bands' performances.
