Turkish megastar Tarkan to perform in US

ISTANBUL

Turkish megastar Tarkan will take the stage in the United States for a series of concerts in New York and Los Angeles organized by the SM Production Group in March. 

Tarkan will take stage in the Hammerstein Ballroom at the Manhattan Center Studios on March 2 and 3, 2017 in New York and at The Novo by Microsoft in the heart of Los Angeles on March 5. 

The Hammerstein Ballroom and The Novo by Microsoft are two of the most important stages in the U.S. hosting world-renowned singers such as Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue, Jennifer Lopez, Alan Parsons and Azealia Banks. 

Concert tickets in New York are priced between $80 and $250 and in Los Angeles they range from $80 and $175. 

Tarkan has for years been recognized as Turkey’s biggest popstar, reaching his zenith in 2006 when he performed a now legendary five-concert series in Istanbul.

“Tarkan is a great singer and his performances are great. He has incredible charisma,” said music manager Michael Lang, organizer of the historic 1969 Woodstock Festival. 

The late Ahmet Ertegün, the music industry’s legendary name, co-founder of the Atlantic Records and Tarkan’s mentor, once said Tarkan’s stage presence as one of the “finest live performers” that he had ever seen.
