The Turbans are a London-based world music group with a core of seven members, to which others are added on an ad-hoc basis.[1][2]

The Turbans began when Oshan Mahony and Darius Luke Thompson (both half-Iranian), met while cycling in Nepal.[1] Maxim Shchedrovitzki was born in Belarus, and raised in Israel.[1] Miroslav Morski is also a well-known pop singer in Bulgaria.[1] The bassist Freddie Stitz was a member of Razorlight.[1] They have all lived in the London Borough of Hackney at some point.[3]

In April 2018, they released their eponymous debut album.[3] In June 2019, they played the West Holts Stage at the Glastonbury Festival.[4][5]
