TURKISH JAZZ LEGEND ILHAN ERSAHIN'S ISTANBUL SESSIONS
Details
ILHAN ERSAHIN, FRONTMAN OF ISTANBUL SESSIONS, IS ONE OF THOSE RARE MOGULS OF THE NEW YORK CITY UNDERGROUND SCENE VIA HIS CLUB AND RECORD LABEL, NUBLU, AND HAS SPREAD HIS NEW YORK ENERGY THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.
With Istanbul Sessions, Ersahin has set fire to stages all across the world.
Their electrifying, genre-crossing performance posed questions: Is this really jazz? Doesn’t this sound like a rock band? Where does their sound come from? IT’S MASTER-LEVEL MUSICIANSHIP MEETING HIGH ECLECTICISM WHERE THE CLICHÉ OF “EAST-TO-WEST CROSSOVER” FINDS ITS TRUE SENSE AND POWER.
Following their 2009 debut album featuring French trumpeter Erik Truffaz, they released four more studio albums (Night Ride, Istanbul Underground, Solar Plexus, Bir Zamanlar Şimdi) and are set to release a new album Mahalle this year.
