The Last Train to Belgrade is a show exploring the many different musical strands that have emerged from the Balkan region. We particularly love traditional Romany music, with its fast-paced danceable brass band sounds and the rich vocal traditions of Manele. This isnt a show preserved in aspic, and so we play new music from here the U.K and across the world, the so-called "gypsy sounds" which are mixed with electronica, punk, ska and much more. From Fanfare Ciocarlia to Rotfront, we will be playing big names and smaller relatively unknown bands who are playing this deeply enjoyable music. We are Richard Connor and Steev Burgess, and if you want to say hi, please join our facebook page here http://www.facebook.com/pages/Last-Train-To-Belgrade/311881912188106. Enjoy!
