Keegan Tawa is Saxophonist, Duduk player, composer, and engineer from Philadelphia, US. His unique fusion of engineering and composition gives his music a characteristically futuristic sound. Tawa is a super collaborator, seeking constantly to intersect the skills, backgrounds, and cultures of artists from around the world. His background in Jazz, vocation as an engineer, and passion for storytelling give him a rare and unmistakable approach to composition and sound.

Tawa's newest record, "Tessellation," is a global collaboration of 25 artists from Turkey, Iran, Tunisia, Israel, India, China, and the United States. Tessellation is a Jazz album deeply inspired by Pan-Arabic and Persian approaches to melody, featuring a wide array of traditional instrumentation deployed alongside modern, cutting-edge electronics.

Tawa rides on the momentum of his last record's release, Startide.  Startide was hailed by Philly Live Magazine as "One of the most complex and intricate listens of the year....an expert blend of modern, classical, and jazz music with the most unexpected of instruments....complex and nuanced."
