Karsu | Pop, Jazz und türkische Musik | Karlstorbahnhof Heidelberg

With her unique blend of pop, jazz and Turkish music, Amsterdam-based singer and pianist Karsu enchants people worldwide. With her excellent band, stunning stage presence and a repertoire that ranges from jazz to danceable funk songs to intimate Turkish songs, she is definitely a true star.

She has performed in over 20 countries around the world and has played three times at New York's famed Carnegie Hall and twice at the North Sea Jazz Festival.

In 2012, she released her debut album "Confession," followed by "Colors" in 2015, for which she received an Edison Award. In 2017, she played "Play My Strings" in theaters, and in 2018, she followed it with the tour "Karsu plays Atlantic Records." After that, Karsu toured many countries again, including Turkey, where her concerts are always sold out.

At the end of 2019, the album "Karsu" was released, an album with again self-written English and Turkish lyrics. The release of the album was followed by a club tour in the Netherlands and Turkey. In addition, a world tour was planned for 2020; Karsu would perform in America and Russia, among other places.

During the Covid 19 pandemic, the artist performed many online concerts from her grand piano at home, provided a live stream of De Doelen, did an Empty Concertgebouw session, shot several music videos, and played for Covid patients at VUmc for weeks. In February 2022, Karsu resumed her club tour in the Netherlands, which had been postponed by the Corona measures, culminating with a performance at the sold-out Paradiso.
