Danish/Turkish psych rock quintet Tuhaf releases debut album ‘Mere Guld’
Today, Copenhagen based Danish/Turkish psych rock quintet fronted by charismatic Turkish born singer Berrin Bas releases its debut album ‘Mere Guld’ (‘More Gold’ in Danish). The record consists of seven songs produced by Lasse Ballade (Konvent, Solbrud a.o.), mixed and mastered by Jens Benz (Iceage, Powersolo ao.) and with artwork by Ewa Mos.
The fusion of different types of musicians and all kinds of genres - Anatolian folk, indie rock, free jazz, Danish traditional songs and US roots rock - wondrously merges into the sound of TUHAF. The band released its first EP ‘Gölgeden’ in 2019 and has since then played many shows around Denmark, Scandinavia and Turkey and now, the band is ready to share its debut album ‘Mere Guld’.
Even though TUHAF’s lyrics are and will remain poetry of love, it is not shiny happy songs about falling in love which the band excels in. Rather it is the breach, the sorrow, the conflict and profound longing that forms the subject matter. On ‘Mere Guld’, one hears about deceit among friends, lost love, abuse, mental distress, psychic vulnerability, abortion and even about an intern conflict in the band.
The album’s latest single ‘Hafla’ was released in start August alongside a music video (created by Ewa Mos) which in the spirit of the single (‘Hafla’ means ‘feast’ or ‘celebration’ in arabic) is a homage to the individual and the differences that give individuals their uniqueness.
