Derya Yıldırım & Grup Şimşek

Derya Yıldırım and Grup Şimşek return with their third album “Dost 2”, the second part of the highly acclaimed Dost 1 released in 2021. This eight-track release sees Turkish singer, bağlama player and multi-instrumentalist Derya Yıldırım and her international band of siblings continue their psychedelic journey, meandering through Anatolian folk music and poetry with their electrifying grooves, while delving into their own personal lives and experiences.

Although rooted in Anatolian tradition, Grup Şimşek draws on a limitless cosmos of sound and relies on the contribution of each band member.
