Fiery Balkan brass, irresistible beats, Roma (Gypsy) accordion wizardry, and virtuoso jazz chops make Slavic Soul Party! NYC’s official #1 brass band for BalkanSoul GypsyFunk.&nbsp; These nine musicians pump the sounds of New York life through a Balkan brass filter, making new music out of immigration, integration, and ingenuity.&nbsp; The band's Tuesday night residency at Barbès in Brooklyn, going for over 22 years, has become a destination for music fans from around the world, and is famous for "delivering a great time." (New York Times)&nbsp; In November 2024 SSP! released their seventh album, a collection of original material titled “Extended Play” on the Diskonife label."Anytime musicians study traditions deeply, and then free themselves to follow their own whims, it's a beautiful thing. But when it comes to the brass band fusion of Slavic Soul Party! that's just the beginning.&nbsp; With razor-sharp precision, juggernaut force, and a healthy dose of playfulness, these guys start out in overdrive and never let up... Slavic Soul Party! offers a gutpunch to preconceptions about traditional music, world music, pop music, dance music, but I'll tell you, this is one gutpunch you'll enjoy."
