Born in Jerusalem to parents of Moroccan, Iraqi, Argentinian, and Eastern European descent, raised between Buenos-Aires and Tel-Aviv, and based out of Brooklyn since 2011, Or Bareket is one of the most prominent bassists of his generation, as well as a composer and bandleader with an eclectic yet meticulously cohesive approach.

Winner of the  2011 International Society of Bassists' jazz competition, Bareket's distinct lyricism, rhythmic dexterity, and groove-centric approach are clearly present in his playing and writing alike. Growing up tri-lingual, Bareket is fascinated by how different languages and cultures intersect and diverge. His creative process is an investigation of spaces between and within languages, synthesizing the different worlds he inhabits into one personal aesthetic that honors all of them: his ancestral North African and Latin- American folklores, his life-long study of Black American music, and his experiences making music with some of today's foremost artists across a wide range of musical generations and stylistic orientations; he’s worked with bands led by Leon Parker, Joel Ross, Ari Hoenig, Etienne Charles, Sam Yahel, Camila Meza, Jacques Schwartz-Bart, Aaron Goldberg, and Jean-Michel Pilc, to name a few, and has performed with the likes of Joshua Redman, Chris Potter, Hamilton de Holanda, Jeff Ballard, Billy Hart, Peter Bernstein, Shai Maestro and Sullivan Fortner in different settings. 

Bareket's sophomore album, “33” was released in 2019 on Enja Records. His debut album, “OB1” was released in 2017 on Fresh Sound records.  Both albums were well-received;  WBGO's Nate Chinen wrote:

"...music of rhythmic sophistication and lyrical depth...brimming with springy energies and smart details"

Bareket's band toured Europe and the West Coast in support of both albums.

As a sideman, Bareket has played on dozens of albums and performed extensively across Europe, Asia, and the Americas, at venues such as the ElbPhilharmonie (Hamburg), the Olympia (Paris), Hollywood Bowl, and countless others, also appearing locally at NY venues like The  Blue Note, Jazz Standard, The Jazz Gallery, and Smalls.
