TAARKA

“Their voices sound fantastic together…Enion is a marvelous violin player, and David is her equal on mandolin and guitar.” -No Depression
Taarka seamlessly fuses brilliant instrumental chops with songwriting of great depth and creativity, cooking up musical “sustenance that stays with you long after you’ve pushed away from the table.” Adventurers through the many landscapes of music and true world travelers, veterans of 1000-year floods and veggie oil tour buses, David (voice, mandolin, guitar, and octave mandolin), Enion Pelta-Tiller (voice, 5-string violin) spin stories and melodies that delight, inspire, and move all who listen. Taarka and its members have performed with Patrick Bartley, Ron Miles, Linda Ronstadt, members of Old and In the Way, the Grateful Dead, Phish, and Darol Anger, among others.
Taarka has performed at major festivals across the continent including Festival International de Chihuahua (MX), Music Fest Vancouver (CA), High Sierra, Pagosa Folk n’ Bluegrass, The Britt Festivals, Telluride Bluegrass, Mendocino Music Festival, and many more, and has been a guest at Bluegrass Underground and Music City Roots, both in Nashville.
