Watar Band presents a powerful musical journey blending classic Iraqi heritage with contemporary sound. Through a unique mix of old and new songs, their performance celebrates memory, identity, and the evolving spirit of Iraqi music across generations. Watar Band is a contemporary Iraqi music group founded in late 2022, blending academic backgrounds with artistic passion to create a distinctive musical identity that has resonated both inside Iraq and internationally.
The band is led by Dr. Farqad Khudhur, its founder and guitarist, a dentist and lecturer in oral medicine who bridges professional precision with artistic sensitivity. He is joined by Dr. Ahmed Alsaidaly, lead vocalist and cajón player, a practicing pharmacist known for his expressive voice and stage presence, and Ahmed Alhyali, lead vocalist, oud player, and composer, an information technology engineering graduate who shapes the band’s melodic character.
Since its formation, Watar Band has performed at festivals and international stages across Australia, Sweden, the UAE, Oman, Jordan, and beyond, presenting original songs and reimagined Iraqi heritage music to diverse audiences worldwide. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
