Boston-based musician performs Middle & Near Eastern Music.
Tev Stevig is a Boston-based guitarist and multi-instrumentalist, specializing in a variety of plucked string instruments from the Balkans, Greece, Turkey, and Afghanistan. Tev often performs solo or with frequent collaborators, exploring Contemporary Modal Music through original compositions based in Turkish makam and other Eastern modal traditions. Tev’s solo/duo project, called Jeni Jol, incorporates elements of music from the Balkans, Greece, and Turkey in his original compositions and arrangements for clawhammer style fretless guitar. This style (also known as frailing) is closely associated with old time American folk music played on the banjo and has its roots in Africa. Tev's release, Jeni Jol: Music of the Balkans, Greece, and Turkey has garnered universal praise from critics and is one of Acoustic Guitar Magazine's best albums of 2013.
Outside of his performing career, Tev teaches oud, saz, tanbur, guitar, banjo, ukulele, and other plucked string instruments at Powers Music School in the Boston area and out of his home studio on the North Shore of Boston. He enjoys traveling, surfing, and spending time with his family.
