Unified Gecko - Gecko Kebab: release info

Independent, 2004

In early 2003, Unified Gecko evolved out of collaborations between traditional Turkish group Gece, led by Turkish-born singer/songwriter Murat Yucel, and Australian-based musicians of varied backgrounds - Samoan, Maltese, Dutch, Italian and Sri Lankan. With the groovemeister Nicky Bomba on drums, Natalia Mann on classical harp and a growling trumpet and sax section, they have created a uniquely Australian approach to Turkish music.
