    He's been at it a long time, and is just as good on guitar and oud. I discovered him two or three years ago, and frankly I listen to him almost all the time.

    Read all about him.

    Titi's gig with Jaadu at Celtic Connections was terrific.

    Here is a review.

    First time watching him also, thanks David. One of his solo clip really caught my ear: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUxs8OJPyoE

    Any ideas what tuning he is using on that solo video?

    In a Scottish newspaper review of the Glasgow gig, it was said that Titi played in 'Kurdish' tuning, but I can't offer any information on that and it might not necessarily be accurate.

    Anyone know what Kurdish tuning on the bouzouki would be?

    He is indeed an incredible and really inspiring musician - easily the person I've listened to most in the past two or three years.

    I have been a fan of his for some years now. There is a great tune called Ma Gavali which I have been learning on bouzouki. Nearly got it. Lots of 3 time over 4/4 makes for tricky playing.

    I wonder who made his bouzouki? I want all those CBom players on the cafe to now emulate his playing on the bouzouki.

    Here is a video of the great collaboration between Titi Robin and Faiz Ali Faiz which I hadn't seen before. I was lucky enough to see this line-up in Glasgow in 2012, but I have to say this performance here is amazing. In fact, I really don't think I have ever seen a more intense performance. Stunning.
