ALATURCA CONNECTION

Berkeley-based Turkish music band formed by the area's widely acclaimed musicians. Each of the members comes from a different ethnic background, bringing musical depth and years of experience playing a broad repertoire of classical, folkloric, and contemporary Turkish, Balkan, and Romani songs. Their sound is a bridge between traditional and modern Turkish music. The band has been an active supporter of underprivileged girls' education in Turkiye through their annual signature fundraising event "Gelecege Sarkilar (Songs for the Future)".
