Sojourn
Sojourn was a monumental undertaking for a bunch of kids from Ankara. The album was a concept with complex compositions. Despite all its flaws, EMI Turkey took the album for distribution, creating the push needed to take the next steps in Dreamtone’s dreams.

Album Story
The album was about a man making a deal with the Devil himself to return to life and be with his family one last time.
It was a conceptual story with Gary Wehrkamp (Shadow Gallery) handling narrations between the tracks. The album received favorable reviews, albeit with the many flaws it had. Dreamtone was young and passionate, starting their somewhat successful career, and Sojourn opened doors to several future alternatives. The friendship that began with Gary Wehrkamp lasts to this day. Gary Wehrkamp was a guest guitarist in Reversing Time (Dreamtone & Iris Mavraki’s Neverland) and Tales from the King’s Court (Maegi).
