“The best party animal on the planet” – The Evening Standard
Fanfare Ciocarlia started out playing at weddings in a small village in north-eastern Romania. Now, they play to packed out venues the world over, have released 9 albums, and have music critics singing their praises.
Having learned their craft at the feet of their fathers and grandfathers, Fanfare’s members proudly approach every concert as a challenge to both entertain audiences and keep the true spirit of Gypsy music alive. When Fanfare Ciocarlia take the stage, the crowd receive 100% Gypsy music, and this is what truly sets them apart from all other brass bands.
Critics have often hailed Fanfare as the fastest, most frantic brass ensemble ever. Their music is filled with rapid brass riffs and powerful horns that can lift even the worst of moods. At The O2 Kentish Town Forum, they’ll deliver a night full of good vibes, dancing feet, and their unique Romany brass sound.
To take things to next level we’ve got a huge lineup together for this one! London Afrobeat Collective will be bringing their unique high energy sound as well as Balkan Brass heavy weights Gypsy Hill. To top things off we’ve also added DJ Sacha Dieu and Dat Brass. Expect a huge night of explosive brass and Balkan sounds!
