Tuvergen Band: Mongolian Fusion Music

Sunday, January 5, 2025
3:00 pm - 4:15 pm
Petty Auditorium

This Mongolian folk-fusion trio presents modern nomadic music, incorporating blues, bluegrass, rock rhythms, and more into its repertoire of Mongolian and Tuvan folk songs and originals.

Hailing from Inner Mongolia, Tamir Haragana (lead vocals, folk lutes) and Naizal Hargana (horsehead fiddle), bring some of that country’s most distinctive sounds, including overtone throat singing. Drummer Brent Roman augments these sounds with a custom hybrid drumkit featuring global percussion instruments and didgeridoo.
