Eccodek

Over 4 critically acclaimed albums, Canada’s Eccodek has become renowned as a leader in the world of global fusion. With a 2009 Juno nomination, multiple Canadian Music Awards, releases on Buddha Bar, Six Degrees, White Swan Records, their dubwise mix of African, South Asian, Turkish and island sounds, artfully layered over monster grooves is a crowd favourite. Leader Andrew McPherson’s extensive production background (Vieux Farka Touré, Deva Premal, Stephen Fearing, Kiran Ahluwalia, Jane Siberry, gusgus…) makes every Eccodek release a travelogue of texture, groove and blissed out melodies.

Besides being a singer-songwriter, Avital Raz is also a highly trained and active performer of both Western Early music and Indian classical music. She was recently introduced, on "the voice of music" radio, during a live performance, as one of the most interesting and versatile artists active in Israel today.
Avital's lyrics are daring and eccentric. Her unique composing and singing styles blend the diverse musical traditions she studied rigorously.
