Amidst a world-music landscape now teeming with Balkan gypsy influences, describing this fted Band of Brigands as seminal hardly covers it. Taraf de Haidouks are a multi-generational repository of past and present Roma lore; of music mingled from myriad cultures, via weddings, christenings, harvests and wakes since time immemorial.
Theyre also one of the most jaw-dropping, invigorating live acts youre ever likely to see. When presenting their BBC Radio 3 award for World Music, long time admirer Johnny Depp stated: Taraf de Haidouks are the greatest musicians I know they play a music which expresses the most intense joy, and have this gift to make you feel alive.
