Dina El Wedidi (Arabic: دينا الوديدي), is an Egyptian singer, composer, guitarist, music producer, and storyteller.

She studied Oriental Literature at Cairo University, where she graduated in 2008,[2] then spent some time working as a translator and sometimes a tour guide in Egypt.

[2] Wedidi discovered her passion for music after joining El Warsha Theater Troupe in 2008,[2] where she learned to sing a wide variety of traditional genres with the help of her tutor Maged Soliman.

It’s an amazing thing – a year ago, she was singing with local bands in Cairo’s Tahrir Square during the struggle, and then performing with me, in London, an appropriately bicultural song, ‘Egyptian Bossa Nova’.

The mentoring was to give her opportunities to follow the way we work, how we prepare our songs, our records, our concerts, how we travel and choose audiences, and why we come to Europe and go to Africa.

Being a Cairo-based musician, El Wedidi finds inspirations Egypt’ streets, which she later quotes in her songs through lyrics and compositions.
