Okan Ersan Electric Band

We are delighted to welcome the Okan Ersan Electric Band to Highams Park Jazz Club for a special evening of contemporary electric jazz fusion.

Cypriot Turkish guitarist and composer Okan Ersan is internationally recognised for his unique approach to fusion, blending jazz, progressive rock, world music and Eastern Mediterranean influences with powerful electric guitar, complex rhythms and cinematic soundscapes.

His music combines virtuosic improvisation, memorable melodies and adventurous compositions inspired by themes ranging from mythology to science and the cosmos.

Okan’s international career began in 2003 when he became a finalist in the prestigious Guitarist of the Year competition in Birmingham, UK.
