SWR Jazzpreis 2024

We, as duo with Nick Dunston, have been awarded the SWR Jazzpreis in Germany. Appreciate the recognition from the jury and have to say that the real prize was the chance to play with the incredible Joey Baron as trio. We have invited Joey for the award ceremony concert and hoping to announce more concerts coming up as this trio in the near future.

SWR has published an episode with the recording of our concert // first 15 minutes as duo and rest as trio. You can check it out here.

New Album Coming Up with James Banner’s USINE on KLAENG Records USINE will be touring in Austria and Germany for promoting this beautiful new record very soon with Cansu on vocals and efx, James Banner (bass, comp), Declan Forde (piano) and Max Andrzejewski (drums). Order and stream here:     New Duo with David August “Aşa” To Release First Single “Su” On This Compilation on 99CHANTS The origins of Aşa go back to early 2020 when Cansu Tanrikulu and David August found themselves in the studio in Berlin within a time of global stagnation and high motivation to record their brewing ideas after having curated a friendship and musical connection throughout some years. The result aimed to combine both of their compositional worlds using the improvisational repertoire of Tanrikulu and the scope of sound design that August was working on at that time. After two years of keeping their ideas in the dark — and reflecting on the drafts and recordings — an early session came back to the surface, transformed and readapted to the concept of an imaginary landscape – using this platform as an opportunity to debut this collaboration that is eager to explore its identity in longer formats in near future.
