About Turkuaz

Turkuaz grew out of Brooklyn in the late 2000s, started by guitarist and singer Dave Brandwein and bassist Taylor Shell, who had met at Berklee College of Music. The group expanded into a nine-piece with a horn section and a front line of vocalists that included Shira Elias and Sammi Garett.

The songs lean on tight, interlocking rhythm parts and call-and-response singing, with a debt to Sly and the Family Stone and to the polyrhythmic side of Talking Heads. Albums include Digitonium (2015) and Life in the Ghost Mode (2019).
