Short Bio:

Name: Ehab Tawfik
Born: January 7, 1966
Birth Place: Cairo Egypt

He is an only child to his parents, his love for music started when he was only nine years old.

He started in 1989 with his first single "Dany", that song was on the Top. First album was in 1990 in title "Ekminny". In 1995 he received his Masters Degree for his thesis: "The Egyptian Song in the Second Half of the Twentieth Century". Not satisfied with just a master degree, Ehab worked toward his Doctorate in Music and Arabic singing, completed in April 2002. The doctorate was entitled "The Methods of Performing Arabic Singing in Egypt during the second half of the last century".

He is seen as one of the top singers in the Arab world, and is especially revered in his hometown. Arguably, his greatest exposure as an artist came on February 26, 2001, when he performed for 50,000 people at a benefit concert to raise funds for Iraqis who were maimed during the Gulf War in Baghdad.

Critics say the successes of Ehab's albums year after year can be attributed to his warm voice, good lyrics, and ability to find talented composers.

In 2007, he married a lady by the name of Nada. Ehab joined Alam El Pahn production company which will have its name printed on the new album.
