Shukar's sound is coming from the old times, when Tatars and Mongolians came to Dacia (the old name of Romania). The members of Shukar play very original sounds called ursari music (which descends from the brotherhood of the bear-tamers), a very old and primitive kind of gipsy/ nomad music. They use primitive and old "instruments" like spoons, wooden barrel or darabuka. Shukar's music is very powerful and "aggressive" but so emotional at the same time.
A live performance of the Shukar is a unique, formidable and exciting experience!
Shukar "Bear Tamers Music" debut album was released worldwide by Sub Rosa Records - Belgium on 15th of October, 2004.
