Royal Exchange Theatre Great Hall in Manchester

Live music from Paula Darwish and her Country and Eastern Band, a unique fusion of music in turkish, english, and kurdish. Paula Darwish was born in England to arabic parents and started the band in Manchester 6 years ago. Her voice is both memorable and unique and she is a skilled lyricist in the english language.The Country and Eastern Band fuses the spirit of rock with eastern rhythms and melodies and together they present an eclectic selection of songs, bringing 400 hundred year old Anatolian Folk songs bang up to date with imaginative and inspired reworkings. Somehow it all fits together and when they effortlessly slip in a Nashville country ballad you won't even notice the difference.
