Baba Zula

Multi-genre psychedelia from Istanbul, BaBa ZuLa, will perform on Monday, October 10 2026 in Palác Akropolis in Prague.

Described as Turkey's most beloved alternative music purveyors BaBa ZuLa create a unique psychedelic sound, combining Traditional Turkish instruments, electronica, reggae and dub. The core of their sound is the saz, a Turkish bouzouki like stringed instrument with a bright, high-pitched sound. In 2005 BaBa ZuLa was exposed to a wider international audience when they were featured in a documentary, Crossing the Bridge by Fatih Akin, which took an in-depth look at Istanbul’s contemporary and avant-garde music scene.
