Dazkarieh

DAZKARIEH began their musical journey in 1999 going through various musical phases along their path and today, after many changes in their formation, they are usually classified as being in the “world music” category. And yes, they are indeed world music, in the sense of the musical fusion brought to life by the experiments made by the musicians that extend from traditional to rock music, from erudite to experimental, using, for such experiments, traditional instruments from diverse cultures, like Swedish, Irish or Arab, but having given,a special emphasis to Portuguese traditional music in the last couple of years. The group has already three records, being that the second album had a second edition in wood cover, and with a compilation of their themes inserted into the sound track of the book “Eldest” from Chistopher Paolini with up to 33.000 sold copies. Their latest work suggests us a never-ending search for acoustic sounds that merge into a powerful electric discharge and where an invigorating path is drawn in the “traditional root” Portuguese music. It is a unique sound that flourishes from the root to fly without borders or boundaries, out of the real world. Giving more than 40 shows a year, their participation in the three most important “world music” festivals in Portugal stands out in the summer of 2006. Outside of Portugal stand out in July of the same year, the trip to Canada to partake of the “Festival d’Été de Québec”: one of the biggest in Northern America.
