Audio Melting Pot | Balkan Beat Box | Chan Centre | March 1st
BALKAN BEAT BOX may call the Big Apple home, but their sound is as international as they come. Headed by two Israelis Tamir Muskat and Ori Kaplan, the band's sound intricately blends electronica, hip-hop and dancehall with hard-edged folk music from North America, the Middle East and Eastern Europe.
Their latest record, Nu Med, has been universally well-received since its release last May, with Amazon.com praising its "insistently catchy" melodies as well as the overall sound that is "far from forced, easily summing up the musicians' lives in their homeland as well as their current experiences living in New York City."
Experience the fun and far-reaching musical melting pot when Balkan Beat Box visits the Chan Centre this Saturday, March 1st.
