Hossam Ramzy was born in Cairo. His musical career began early, when at the age of three he was given his first drum an Egyptian tabla.
His passion for percussion was noted by his family (many of whom were themselves involved in the arts) who encouraged him to master his craft by studying with the leading music teachers of Egypt. A move to Saudi Arabia introduced him to many of the Bedouin tribes who gave the young Hossam a rich insight into the cultural origins of Middle Eastern music which became the inspiration for many of his later rhythmic directions. In the mid 1970s he moved to England, and enjoyed great success as a jazz and latin style drummer working with many highly respected jazz musicians like Andy Sheppard and Geoff
Williams. But, as he began looking for new dimensions of percussive sounds, he found himself turning full circle back to his first love, the Egyptian drums, and the thrilling dance rhythms of the Middle East. The distinctive sound of Hossams percussion and the exciting rhythms on his albums caught the imagination of Peter Gabriel who invited Hossam to perform on his albums Passion and later Us as well as his latest album. Hossam has gone on to work with many top musicians including Joan Armatrading and Mari Wilson. In 1994 Robert Plant and Jimmy Page (ex Led Zeppelin) invited Hossam to bring together a band of Arabian musicians and work on their reunion album No Quarter - Unledded which was awarded triple platinum. This led to Hossam joining Page and Plant on their historic reunion 1995/96 world tour. Ever since, Hossam has been extensively touring with various artists, such as Pino Daniele of Italy as well as many of the top class Arabian Singers like Cheb Khaled, Rashid Taha and Faudel. To date, Hossam has released over 20 albums of Egyptian dance and world music, with many of them dedicated to percussion and rhythms of the world. His cinematic credits include Wings of a Dove, The Hunchback of Notre Dame,
The Last Temptation of Christ, The Saint, Stargate, The Governess, Meenaxi: The Tale of Three Cities, Goodbye Lenin and Stealing Beauty. Hossam has also performed with Sting on the Michael Parkinson TV Show, he has won the New Age Voice Award for Best Contemporary World Music for his album Immortal Egypt in collaboration with Phil Thornton. He also joined the Masters of Percussion from Africa Ensemble for a concert at the Royal Festival Hall in London featuring the world famous Brazilian percussionist Airto Moreira.
Today Hossam is at the top of his game, having completed recording string arrangements for Ricky Martins album Life (Sony). Last year he also played a live show with the legendary Grammy Award winners Chick Corea, Isaac Hayes and Mark Isham.
