YaSeeDee ياسيدي is an Arabic Expression used as a warm way to greet friends and literally means: “Oh SIR”.

YaSeeDee’s music can be best described as electro-rock with a Middle Eastern touch.
The band from Ferrara, northern Italy, was founded by the Lebanese Singer and composer Chadi Dalaty in 2006, when he chose to fuse his western and Arabic music backgrounds together.

Incisive distorted guitar riffs, Arabic percussion grooves, electronic drum machines, traditional melodic Arabic and ethnic instruments, Synth bass lines, electric Bass leaping from clean to pumpy and highly processed bass sounds combined together with Chadi’s chameleonic vocals, all represent YaSeeDee’s music.

Since their debut in June 2006 at the famous TV show “Roxy Bar”, YaSeeDee have received great public response.
They won first place at the Emergenza International Music Festival in 2009, becoming best Italian Band, and then represented Italy at the Taubertal Festival in Rothenburg Germany at the International final where they successfully finished in third position.
