Hello and welcome to the Monaco Weekly.
For today's show, I speak with Montpellier born musician Casey Lambist.
His music is an elegant, bouncy mix of upbeat melodies and evocative lyrics.
We discuss his latest album Moda and how Turkey influenced his latest release.
Turkey definitely inspired this album.
And when I was living in Rome, I was also going to Turkey a lot because I.
I kind of fell in love with Istanbul this, this past years.
I don't know how it happened.
I went to play once there and I just connected with the crowd.
I love this city.
It was a country I didn't know much about.
And because it's.
It's such a closed country, we don't have like.
It's difficult for Turkish people to even travel to.
To France for example.
So we don't have a lot of exchange, cultural exchange in general with Turkey, which is a shame because they actually have a.
A bright, beautiful scene.
And Moda is the name of an area in Istanbul that is an area for artists.
I met musicians from there.
You have a lot of music shops.
