Altin Gün
Turkish psychedelic rock orchestra Altin Gün performs at Prague's MeetFactory.
Altın Gün is an Amsterdam-based band formed in 2016 that reinterprets Turkish psychedelic music of the 1960s and 70s through a modern lens of funk, synthesizers and Anatolian instruments. The group brings together Dutch and Turkish musicians, including vocalist Merve Dasdemir and multi-instrumentalist Erdinç Ecevit. Their 2019 album Gece earned a Grammy nomination for Best Global Music Album and landed them slots at Coachella and Primavera Sound. In February 2026 they released their sixth album, Garip, a tribute to the legendary Anatolian folk bard Neşet Ertaş.
Altın Gün released their sixth album Garip (ATO Records) on February 20, 2026 - a collection of ten songs by Turkish folk bard Neşet Ertaş, complemented by arabesque strings and saxophone.
The band announced their first North American tour since 2023 - 15 shows from Vancouver to Pittsburgh, starting September 6, 2026.
ATO Records released the single 'Neredesin Sen' as the first preview of the album Garip; the song is a driving reworking of a Turkish folk classic.
The band completed a spring European tour with stops in Copenhagen, Stockholm, Oslo, and other cities in support of the album Garip.
The 2026 North American tour includes stops in Vancouver, Seattle, Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, Montreal, Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and Washington.
