ABOUT
Nabil Khemir is a well-known Tunisian-born guitarist/lutist, singer, and composer who has created his one-of-a-kind double-neck lute/guitar instrument, which he aptly named "RayJam". This unique instrument allows Nabil Khemir to explore and share his musical playfulness by having an electric lute and electric guitar within grasp at a moment's notice.

Nabil has performed at the international festivals of Carthage, Tabarka, and Hammamet. He has played with Melody Gardot, Joachim Kühn, and drummer Chander Sardjoe.

He participated in 2007 in the American music contest for creation and improvisation and received (among 2000 candidates from 40 countries worldwide) the honor award for his composition "Parfum d’orient et d’occident".

Nabil received in 2008 the Medal of Culture from Tunisia for his cultural contribution to his country.

Nabil Khemir gives workshops about guitar and lute and how to combine two very different music styles and scales. Nabil performs in trio, quartet, or quintet, or as a guest player in other bands at festivals and various events, offering a program that ranges from jazz to funk, as well as oriental music or world pop songs.
