Taarka might be best described as an acoustic supergroup….imagine Django Reinhardt playing with David Grisman. Taarka trods the back alleyways of gypsy music and twirls through fields of bluegrass, all the while swinging like the hippest of jazz cats. Their music takes us through a range of human emotion, from melancholy and sorrow to joy and rapture…[they focus] all their energy on a breathless synergy of sounds…culminating in an intensity rarely found in acoustic music.” ~ Matt Zeigler, Flagstaff Live, Flagstaff, AZ.
