Trans-Siberian March Band
Trans-Siberian March Band is a colourful explosion of flamboyant, high-octane performances and musical miscellany, a fearsome fourteen-piece blend of clarinets, brass, sax, percussion, guitar and vocals.
Their heady mix of culture and carnival includes originals, traditional Balkan, Gypsy and Turkish tunes, up-tempo Russian sing-alongs and even upper-tempo riotous Klezmer.
“Balkan Ska meets Ottoman Battle-Punk in The Trans-Siberian’s obscenely infectious brass blow-out” - Time Out
“...But better than both was the Trans-Siberian March Band... who played a hugely entertaining collaborative show with the hip-hop turntable virtuoso DJ Yoda. Lively and witty, they proved to be perfect festival crowd-pleasers.” – The Times, WOMAD review
