This is the ultimate live band, whisking their audience on a whirlwind journey through deepest Transylvanian melancholy to joyful abandon, whipped up by frenetic Balkan instrumentals. This is Gypsy, Klezmer, Eastern European and Middle-Eastern music imbued with jazzy swing and punky energy.

If you can get a bunch of people who’ve never met, to join hands and dance themselves crazy in a circle – in London, you can do it anywhere. And this band have done it everywhere from Glastonbury Festival to the Queen’s Concert at Buckingham Palace.

The band has played to crowds of 5000 supporting "The Beat" at Glastonbury Festival, and at the Trafalgar Square Romany Festival, they entertained the Sheikh of Al' Ain in The United Arab Emirates, The Sultana Of Oman at her UK residence in Surrey, and at the Queen's Jubilee Concerts at Buckingham Palace. They have also appeared at The South Bank's Purcell Room, The Barbican, Meltdown Festival, Coin St Romanian Festival, Spraoi in Waterford Ireland, Refugee Week, and Art Centres throughout the UK.

The band brings together eminent musicians from former Yugoslavia, Russia and Romania, with fresh UK talent from Scottish, Celtic and Jazz backgrounds, and features violins, accordion, flute, traditional percussion and a modern rhythm section. The result is a most exciting example of highly original music, which spans east and west and where new compositions sit alongside reworkings of traditional tunes sourced from all over the Balkans and the Middle East.

They have toured France, Switzerland, The Middle East and Eastern Europe. Besides doing a John Peel session, they have played live on BBC London's Charlie Gillett show, on BBC World Service’s "Outlook" and "The Ticket" and were interviewed on TV by Sacha Baron Cohen (AKA Ali G).

"Gypsy, Klezmer, Eastern European and Middle-Eastern music imbued with jazzy swing and punky energy… with lots of high-speed instrumentals (featuring the twin-turboed fiddle assault of Frank Biddulph and Kate Hands), plus the deep Romanian blues singer Dana" fRoots magazine

"A small corner of Soho exploded around midnight last night as Dana Cordorean-Berciu, a Romanian diva with a line in angst-filled doina ballads provided stark counterpoint to the original but out-there instrumentals being wielded with furious abandon". Evening Standard
