Chirkutt - Lisbon to Dhaka

Inspired from the singer and songwriter, Sharmin Sultana Sumi's recent tour to Europe and WOMEX 2021, Chirkutt, the global music band from Bangladesh has launched a four single recording project. These series of songs represents the stories of compassion, love, faith and excitement that Sumi herself experienced during the trip.

The second of the four singles has the theme of what she loved about the city and the people of Portugal. As she wonders through the streets, exploring the culture and the scenic beauty of one of the oldest cities of Europe, Lisbon, she hums the words for this song and wishes it to be a "Chirkutt" (a short letter) to the people living there.

The song can be ordered on the iTunes Store >>> LINK after release

The band has launched the single with a Music Video to go along with the recording that was released on YouTube through their own channel, Chirkutt Official. The music video for the song Lisbon is a great summation of the whole band enjoying making the song.


The release is officially available on all platforms on the 15th March 2022 and is released world-wide on the world music label Mountain Records.

Issued by the Band Chirkutt.

McCully/Mackay reveal title track for their forthcoming second album

  McCully/Mackay reveal title track for their forthcoming second album Progrock duo McCully/Mackay are proud to announce The Garden of the Snake, their new single and title track for their forthcoming second album.  Darker both musically and lyrically than their previous works, the track explores themes of exploitation, manipulation and corruption inspired by familiar myths and parables as well as the modern landscape of our ever-increasingly authoritarian world. “There’s an increasing number of laws and encroachment on individuals” says Tully.  “Levels of ever-growing red tape are suffocating creativity and expression. It’s a system that benefits the wealthy and powerful, who can buy their own justice.” The band are known for their bold instrumentation and continue to push their skills with their new material. Along with the signature synth and guitar sounds, Garden of the Snake heightens the eerie atmosphere with a violin solo. "Tully was hinting at me playing some
