“The Supremes and The Ramones interspersed by the Balkan brass of Beirut and the fiery violin ballads of Félix Lajkó; Elvis, Buddy Holly and Richie Valens swinging along with the sweet heartbreak of Sister Wynona Carr and Kim Weston; the Sheffield, Glasgow and Durham soul of Pulp, Belle and Sebastian and Martha merged with Django Reinhardt’s Gypsy swing and Omar Souleyman’s ecstatic Kurdish and Arabic beats; the poetic London counter-cultural lustre of Hefner and Veronica Falls smooching with King Oliver and His Creole Jazz Band, Gogol Bordello and The Turbans; and Johnny Cash, Jonathan Richman and Sam Cooke twisting the night away alongside Palestinian hip hop band DAM and The Yiddish Twist Orchestra.”
