'''Khaliji''' or '''Khaleeji''' music ({{langx|ar|الموسيقى الخليجية|al-mūsīqā al-khalījiyya}}, {{small|meaning}} "[[Persian Gulf|Gulf]] music") is the music of [[Eastern Arabia]] and the [[Arab states of the Persian Gulf]], and it is a popular genre across the [[Arab world]]. It is traditionally characterized by heavy use of the [[rebab]], [[oud]] and other string instruments such as the [[violin]], the occasional use of [[habbān]], and the inclusion of percussion instruments such as the [[mirwas]], [[tablah|tabl]], and [[Indian musical instruments#Membranophones|duff]] drums. Khaliji music first started as a bedouin tradition with poetry sung by a tribe's ''[[sha'ir|shāʿir]]'' ("poet"), usually accompanied by a rebab, the lyrics dealt with tales of honor, love, camel riders, and glory warriors.


Khaliji music has roots going back more than 1,000 years, to the [[Islamic]] period, under the [[Umayyad dynasty|Umayyads]] and [[Abbasid Caliphate|Abbasids]] in [[Baghdad]], [[Iraq]].<ref>{{cite web | url=https://afropop.org/articles/feature-africans-in-the-arabian-persian-gulf | title=Afropop Worldwide &#124; Feature: Africans in the Arabian (Persian) Gulf }}</ref> In the modern era, Kuwaitis were the first commercial recording artists and composers in the [[Arab states of the Persian Gulf|Persian Gulf region]]; [[Iraq]], [[Kuwait]] and [[Saudi Arabia]] pioneered the Khaliji genre into its modern form in the second half of the 20th century and soon became the focal point of the industry, but in recent years [[UAE]] has increased its impact on the Khaliji genre.<ref name="shart">{{cite web|url=http://www.sharjahart.org/programmes/web-radio/episode-50-the-history-of-recording-in-the-gulf-a|title=The History of Recording in the Gulf Area|author=Mustafa Said|access-date=12 March 2016|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160416165634/http://sharjahart.org/programmes/web-radio/episode-50-the-history-of-recording-in-the-gulf-a|archivedate=16 April 2016|website=sharjaharat}}</ref><ref name=pers /><ref name="shartw">{{cite web|url=http://www.sharjahart.org/programmes/web-radio/episode-51-history-of-recording-in-the-gulf-area|title=The History of Recording in the Gulf Area (2)|author=Mustafa Said|access-date=12 March 2016|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304052858/http://www.sharjahart.org/programmes/web-radio/episode-51-history-of-recording-in-the-gulf-area|archivedate=4 March 2016}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{Cite web |last=Saeed |first=Saeed |date=2012-07-24 |title=Music of the Arab World: The history and development of Khaleeji music |url=https://www.thenationalnews.com/arts-culture/music/music-of-the-arab-world-the-history-and-development-of-khaleeji-music-1.386752 |access-date=2022-10-22 |website=The National |language=en}}</ref> The Khaliji scene mainly consists of by Iraqi, Emirati, Kuwaiti, Bahraini, and Saudi artists today.<ref name=shart /><ref name="pers">{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Cd1M0S9ol7YC&pg=PA99|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160219121906/https://books.google.com/books?id=Cd1M0S9ol7YC&pg=PA99|url-status=dead|archive-date=19 February 2016|title=Performing the Past: Sea Music in the Arab Gulf States|page=99|author=Laith Ulaby| isbn=9781109122480 |access-date=12 March 2016}}</ref><ref name=shartw /><ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite web |last=Dubai |first=Art |title=Has Khaleeji Pop Music Evolved?: An Interactive Lecture by Bahraini Art Platform Too Far |url=https://www.artdubai.ae/planetaryfeed_khaleeji-pop_toofar/ |access-date=2022-10-22 |website=Art Dubai |language=en}}</ref> Along with its main Arabian style, Khaliji music can also sometimes incorporate few elements of East African along with the [[Arabia]]n genre such as [[Liwa (music)|Liwa]], [[Music of Qatar|Moradah]], and [[Sawt (music)|Sawt]] reflecting the region's ethnic history.<ref>{{Cite web | first=Banning | last=Eyre | url=http://www.afropop.org/wp/9294/feature-africans-in-the-arabian-arabian-gulf/ | title=Feature: Africans in the Arabian (Persian) Gulf (interview with Joseph Braude) | website=[[Afropop Worldwide]] | access-date=16 September 2014 }}{{Dead link|date=February 2020 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Sekka |date=2021-04-30 |title=The African influence on Khaleeji music |url=https://sekkamag.com/2021/04/30/the-african-influence-on-khaleeji-music/ |access-date=2022-10-22 |website=Sekka |language=en-US}}</ref>

This article is about a form of music popular in Eastern Arabia. For the geographic and regional identity known as Khaleeji, see Eastern Arabia. For Iranian southern music, see Bandari music.

Khaliji or Khaleeji music (Arabic: الموسيقى الخليجية, romanized: al-mūsīqā al-khalījiyya, meaning "Gulf music") is the music of Eastern Arabia and the Arab states of the Persian Gulf, and it is a popular genre across the Arab world. It is traditionally characterized by heavy use of the rebab, oud and other string instruments such as the violin, the occasional use of habbān, and the inclusion of percussion instruments such as the mirwas, tabl, and duff drums. Khaliji music first started as a bedouin tradition with poetry sung by a tribe's shāʿir ("poet"), usually accompanied by a rebab, the lyrics dealt with tales of honor, love, camel riders, and glory warriors.

Khaliji music has roots going back more than 1,000 years, to the Islamic period, under the Umayyads and Abbasids in Baghdad, Iraq.[1] In the modern era, Kuwaitis were the first commercial recording artists and composers in the Persian Gulf region; Iraq, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia pioneered the Khaliji genre into its modern form in the second half of the 20th century and soon became the focal point of the industry, but in recent years UAE has increased its impact on the Khaliji genre.[2][3][4][5] The Khaliji scene mainly consists of by Iraqi, Emirati, Kuwaiti, Bahraini, and Saudi artists today.[2][3][4][5][6] Along with its main Arabian style, Khaliji music can also sometimes incorporate few elements of East African along with the Arabian genre such as Liwa, Moradah, and Sawt reflecting the region's ethnic history.[7][8]

The period betwen 1980s and mid 2000, saw a lot of local Khaleeji/Bandari bands singing in mixed Khaleeji and Bandari style in both Persian and Arabic (southern/gulf dialects), most notable among these being the Bahraini Sultanies band and the Kuwaiti Miami band,[9][10] among others.

In recent years, a new Independent scene has started to emerge in Arab states of the Persian Gulf that aims to challenge the sociocultural norms of modern Khaleeji society through a sound that's distinct from traditional Khaliji music, the scene has been coined as "Alternative Khaliji" by Kuwaiti-American musician +Aziz.[11]
