Phoenix and the Turtle

Music is a feeling and I feel great

About Me



PHOENIX AND THE TURTLE is known for taking its listeners on a musical journey. The fusion of instrumental rock and classical strings, while incorporating sparse vocals, lends to the uniqueness of this southern California quartet’s sound. Phoenix and the Turtle formed in 2003 as a collaboration for a friend’s funeral.
