FAITH i BRANKO
Leading Serbian Romani violinist Branko Ristic - ‘a performer that Paganini would be proud of' (BBC Radio 3), and English Faith Ristic ‘passionate nimble-fingered accordionist' (ABC Radio, Australia) perform virtuosic Roma-influenced music.
Their albums feature on The Rough Guide to World Jazz; they have played multiple tours of Australia, New Zealand and Europe; have an International award-winning documentary that opened Aljazeera Film Festival, and have statues erected in Serbia in honour of their outstanding cultural contribution.

BUFFO'S WAKE BIG BAND
Buffo's Wake is a twelve-legged beast, hatched in the murky backwater of Brighton.
Armed with accordions, violins and buckets full of gusto they waltz, tango, mosh and kolo their way through a vast array of influences from Eastern European folk, Balkan Brass and Russian folk, to punk rock and cabaret.
