Lights, Camera, Action!

Saturday January 19 Ridha along with Swina Allen took their Jammin Mood on the road to the Swiss Arena and what a night it was. As a bonus, their 2+ hour concert was broadcast live on DBC radio tv. DBC radio tv ranks among the top online radio channels as well as a streaming TV station and live podcast provider. It originates out of Switzerland.

PedroMeya Martynov, owner of Swiss Arena said, “We all enjoy Second Life and want to spread the experience of good Live Music all over SL and RL.”  I have to believe all those in attendance watching or listening on DBC radio tv had a great time tonight.

Cruci Halberd of Swiss Arena stated, " Ridha and Swina Live @ Swiss Arena was one of the most entertaining shows to date at the Swiss Arena. Their musical improvisations were captivating and exhilarating to listen to. Their melodies spanned many genre's from Jazz, to Blues, to Rock with a taste of Arabic. I would highly recommend this Musical Duo to anyone who truly enjoys music.

Wonderful job Ridha and Swina you keep the music alive for all!

Crash, Boom, Ridha

The crowd in Istanbul was enthusiastic, in fact one audience member was so moved she felt a need to hop up on Ridha’s piano and be part of the show. As much as Ridha loves all his fans, it’s best if we all stay on the dance floor and let Ridha and his music remain center stage (plus you never know when you might scratch his Steinway!) Half way through the event the Sim crashed (we attribute this to the fact that Ridha’s performance was even too hot for Second Life to handle.) But no fear, Ridha came back and performed a variety of wonderful music—the blues set had the fans screaming for more!

Special thanks to Barbarella Noel for snapping the pictures for this event!

So Lovely

Ridha performed live at the Brightfield Virtual's Revolutionary Fashion Event Saturday evening before a packed house. The fashionable crowd was treated to a set full of love songs and then Ridha weaved in his world music and ended upbeat with a show stopping mix including an amazing rendition of “When the Saints Come Marching In.” It was a “lovely” evening indeed!

Ridha Rocks the House

Ridha performed to a packed house in Hiriam Sunday, leaving people begging for more. The music was as always amazing but a highlight had to be the new song he introduced combining an Arabic tune with a flamingo style guitar. Way to go Ridha!

Ridha in the Round!

After a location change due to an overcrowded dance floor, the show at Foresta was moved to a lovely park like setting, making it a very intimate place to enjoy Ridha’s performance. The singer wowed the audience with several new selections and cheers rose up when some of the familiar world music was played and many people broke out into the now ever present belly dancing
