Baba Zula's sixth album Roots is released.

"Roots" is full of fun, excitement, vigor, eccentricities, oddities and tradition…just like Istanbul, BaBa Zula’s hometown.

roots “Roots” possesses the analog, authentic rock’n roll sound BaBa Zula grew up listening to in the late-60s, courtesy of cult-favorite Turkish producer Mehmet Ateş. By using the most symbolic instruments of Turkish culture, the wooden spoons and the saz - an instrument that stands out as the first and only Turkish instrument that has been electrified - BaBa Zula’s roots serve as the foundation for their experimentation.
