Greetings Acoustic Music Fans!

So far, Taarka has been having a great Summer... The band performed 3
official (& 4 unofficial) shows
at The High Sierra Music Festival (in Quincy CA), and then was delighted to
be invited to perform as
part of The Oregon Country Fair's Midnight Show. The OCF was highly
incredible as usual, and we've
been positively charged ever since...

With our awesome new Acoustic Bass player, Jason Flores, we've been writing
& rehearsing a few
new tunes, and are currently in the process of recording our 1st major
studio CD. We expect (if all goes
according to plan) to proudly release our coveted creation sometime in late
Sept. or early October..
Stay tuned for details!

In the mean time, we hope you join us for these intermittent flashes of
Seismic Gypsy Hypno Jazz (at times) by candlelight, in the Gardens of Oz...
