I'll play a solo show at #Toronto’s Burdock Music Hall on October 3rd. The interesting coincidence is that my show synchronizes with #NuitBlanche 2026­ – a night of music & arts in Canada.

Looking forward to seeing some of my friends there.

Check my #Bandcamp to listen to more #Kurdish #Kamāncha & get your copy on #BandcampFriday. Kamāncha is a nomadic bowed stringed instrument rooted in the Zagros Mountains’ foothills in West Asia—it has crossed borders due to transmigration & spread across the region.
