Derya Yildirim And Grup Şimşek

Derya & Grup are a quartet unlike any other.

First, is the transcendental voice of Derya Yildirim herself.

Singing entirely in Turkish, Yildirim's voice is wonderfully rich, brimming with the confidence & range of a vocalist many years her senior.

Dynamic & deliciously drifting, it drizzles honey on all that which it adorns.

The perfect companion is to be found in the beautiful playing of the band - theirs is a sound that spans from soul, to Anatolian folk, to psych rock & beyond, even frequently calling to mind the beats of Roc Marciano or Jay Versace.

These varied flavours combine deliciously into a wonderfully easy-to-listen-to whole.\~~~An event at St James the Great is expensive and tickets are priced to help us cover costs.
