“You know a band is good when at the end of their sound check the audience starts clapping” New Paltz Cultural Collective

The band’s Eastern European sound is sort of a mix between Gypsy rock big guns DeVotchKa and Gogol Bordello. They’ve got the very ethnic sound of the former, and though they play fast, it’s not at the manic punk level of the latter. The phrase “foot-stompin'” also is apt, as their original and traditional pieces have a way of making people move. Reno Retro Mix
