Traditional Mutant, featuring Salih Korkut Peker (SKP) and Jabbar, are bringing their completely unique Anatolian Middle Eastern fusion to Brighton and this is not your standard folk, rock or electronic gig.

It’s the kind of sound that makes you think: “How the hell are they getting that out of those instruments?”
Salih and Jabbar have separately played important international festivals taking their unique sounds across Europe.
London’s @cetindag.burak will spin his rare, signature vinyl only Anatolian Grooves, records you’re unlikely to hear anywhere else.
Come and experience it for yourself. Come early, grab a drink and get ready for something genuinely different.
