daoud

**daoud** is a French-Moroccan trumpeter, producer, and composer who blends jazz with hip-hop, R&B, and electronic music influences, creating a sound that challenges jazz purists and celebrates a playful but serious approach to music. Since releasing his debut album *GOOD BOY* in 2024 to critical acclaim, he’s earned a reputation as the "problem child of jazz," known for his charismatic performances and boundary-pushing compositions. His music is marked by a tension between chaos and tenderness, irony and sincerity, reflecting a distinctive voice shaped by themes of inadequacy and absurdism.

He has performed at major jazz festivals such as Montreux Jazz Festival, Festival Jazz sur son 31, and Jazz de Montréal, and played renowned venues like Ronnie Scott’s in London. daoud has opened for notable artists including Erik Truffaz and Lakecia Benjamin, and his debut album was celebrated by *Jazzwise*, *Jazz Views*, and *TSF Jazz* as a highlight of the French jazz scene. His upcoming work continues to explore personal and musical reinvention, maintaining a strong visual and conceptual identity alongside his music.
