Slavic Soul Party
Fiery brass, throbbing grooves, accordion wizardry, and virtuoso jazz chops make Slavic Soul Party the city's official brass band for Balkan soul and gypsy funk. The group pumps a Balkan brass sound through the filter of life in New York's outer boroughs, making new music from the unplanned results of immigration, proximity, and globalization.
Special thanks to Council Member Leroy G. Comrie for making this concert possible. | |
