About Album

Meral Polat Trio takes its audience on a meandering journey through contemporary Anatolian folk- and mountain songs and the many faces of the blues. Earthy, desolate and soul-cutting.

Driven by Meral’s own words and the poetic legacy of her father, Ali Ihsan Polat, the trio undertakes a cathartic quest. Ez Kî Me. (Who am I?) tells old universal stories, giving them new meaning and a modern context.

Reviews

' ...swaying, thundering, sometimes gently cradling and pounding grooves, turn into a surprising framework of mostly traditionally tinged Kurdish and Turkish melodies full of melismatic tonal inflections and embellishments...'
