A
gig
held at The Jam Jar
on Saturday 20th April. The event starts at 20:00.
This April we have the return of Solana. They've successfully sold out the venue twice in the past and we can't wait to hear they're new material.
Solana’s sound is lead by flutes, violin, accordion and Spanish guitar, and takes influence from such diverse greats as Tigran Hamasyan, Kíla, Paco de Lucía and Dhafer Youssef. Their latest release CAMINO received the following praise:
“Their music ranges boldly from klezmer melodies, tingling tango, exuberant Irish folk and swinging jazz to pumping reggae and lilting Latin […] thoroughly invigorating” — Songlines
To Support Solana have invited the spectacular Dila V & The Odd Beats.
Multinational gypsy, folk and psychedelia, combining Turkish folk, Balkan dance beats, and Greek Rebetiko amongst other world music flavours. Queen of hearts Dila V spreads positive vibes with her superb voice and beaming smile, while Fati Ebrem's psychedelic guitar mesmerises all who experience The Odd Beats. Their music is embellished with eastern percussion and powerful ethnic rhythms for an uplifting dance experience.
