ABOUT
Voices, strings, percussions mixed together for a colourful and delicate oriental shine over wild Celtic music.
An unexpected journey threw traditional Breton songs.
While settling in Istanbul 4 years ago, Simone Alves (vocals) and Yann Gourvil (guitar, ‘oud, saz, violin, programming) wanted (needed?) to keep playing and sharing the music they had been learning and doing for years, which lead them to create Astrakan Project.
