Esmerine will be bringing the music from their latest album "Dalmak" to UK stages during two weeks of live performances, starting at the end of November.
The band's core quartet will be rounded out by two to three additional guest players on Turkish string and percussion instruments, including Hakan Vreskala, who helped record the "Dalmak" album in Istanbul last year and recently joined the band for a string of fantastic live dates in Canada.
European tours in 2011 and 2012 brought Esmerine to Istanbul, where the group's enthusiastic reception led to an invitation for an artist residency in the city. "Dalmak" is the fruit of that visit: the majority of the album was recorded in Istanbul, where the band's four Canadian musicians were joined by an equal number of Turkish guest players: Hakan Vreskala, Baran Asik, Ali Kazim Akdag and James Hakan Dedeoglu on various instruments.
