SUMMARY:Sekanjabin
DESCRIPTION:Don't miss this opportunity to catch 11+ piece international en
 semble Sekanjabin with singer Gulin Ciloglu on tour from Instanbul.\n\
 nSekanjabin infuses traditional Turkish music with various rhythms and 
 styles from around the world\, and re-imagines it with not-so-traditional 
 instrumentation. From salsa and flamenco to reggae to calypso\, the
  group breathes new life into centuries old folk music. Over it's almost t
 wo decades evolution\, the group has boasted members from the US\, Turkey\
 , and Peru. The combination has left the band with an eclectic and authent
 ic mix of world influences. Front woman Gulin Ciloglu spends most of her t
 ime in Istanbul\, but whenever she returns to the States\, Sekanjabin asse
 mbles. With two violins\, accordion\, reeds\, an oud\, bazouki and all man
 ner of world percussion amped up to club-worthy energy levels by a rhythm 
 section of electric guitar\, bass and full drum kit\, Sekanjabin brings it
 . The result is a unique\, high-energy live show that spills over from the
  stage to the dance floor – a wild and unusual flavor\, instantly refres
 hing and inspirational!\n\nAs its members are always eager to clarify\, Se
 kanjabin does not play traditional Turkish folk music. The ethno-folk coll
 ective is adamant on that point\, in part because these musicians are seri
 ous students and lovers of all world music. Their dance and folk fusion dr
 aws from a trove of world-sourced melodies (many learned originally by Gü
 lin as a child in Istanbul\, others adapted from contemporary Turkish pop)
  set to a joyous collision of the various rhythms the players taught each 
 other during countless get-togethers: Turkish\, Gypsy\, Calypso\, Cumbia a
 nd Cascara\, bellydance\, reggae and many more. It is hypnotic\, ecstatic\
 , celebratory\, participatory\, and musically rich. Come to listen or danc
 e your *** off!\n\nAdvance tickets (online): $10 / $15 / $25 (plus fees)\n
 Day-of / Door price: $15\, subject to availability.\n\nGET TICKETS HERE
