IndieGoGo fundraising campaign for our Turkish music group Dolunay
Dear fellow udist comrades of mikeouds,
This post has a very commercial nature but it is very much ud related.
Our Turkish music ensemble Dolunay, based out of New York City www.facebook.com/DolunayNYC is making its FIRST full length CD to be entitled "Our House". We spent time in the studio this past July laying down
the tracks and are very excited with what we have so far.
Dolunay is:
Jenny Luna - voice, percussion
Adam Good - ud
Eylem Basaldi - violin
Dolunay (Turkish for “full moon”) draws upon the songs from the Turkish people living across Rumeli, the former region of the Ottoman Balkans.
Dolunay’s intimate sound, sparse in loudness and textured with the dissonance of eastern blues, gives way to a sound at once earthy and celestial,
the size of which defies that of the small makeup of the band. Inspired to engage with the unique repertoire of lesser-known songs and empowered with
a knack to enrich the uncovered sounds with a personal note, Dolunay creates the opportunity to breathe new life into melodies of a region culturally
diverse and historically rich.
We have created an IndieGoGo campaign for the purpose of helping to raise money for this album. Here is the link:
www.indiegogo.com/projects/dolunay-s-first-full-length-album
We are offering a variety of fantastic perks for your donations including a digital download, a hard copy of the CD, album songbook, turkish lentil
soup package (courtesy of our violinist Eylem), Dolunay t-shirt, private lessons, private concerts and more so please have a look.
We appreciate ANY amount of money you can contribute.
Please feel free forward this email to any friends or family you think would be interested in helping out as well.
We are grateful for your continued support.
