We are a group of experienced musicians from across the globe, hailing from South Africa, Finland, Greece, and Crete. We played in the same orchestra and decided to start our own group. With our unique blend of diverse backgrounds, we offer a truly one-of-a-kind musical experience covering a wide range of genres.
We love all music in general. For music festivals and concerts, we concentrate more on traditional and unique pieces and arrangements.
We normally arrive 1-2 hours before the performance to set up. We normally perform 3 x 40 minutes sets. We’re happy to play a bit longer or shorter but we’ve found that these set times suit us and our audiences best.
We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, protection from the elements, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.
We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 5 songs.
Fresh, unique, stylish.
