Conjuring the mood of 1930s Paris and blending it with flavours of Eastern Europe and a liberal sprinkling of high-energy folk, The Schmoozenbergs’ uplifting music will put a smile on your face and a spring in your step.
Influenced by a cocktail of musical traditions—from Gypsy jazz to Klezmer, Celtic, Balkan, Bristolian and beyond—they deliver a barrage of energetic, playful original compositions bursting with irresistibly bouncy rhythms and tantalising melodies.
Based in Bristol and formed in 2012, the band has delighted audiences at venues and festivals around the UK for more than a decade. Their new album Mouse was released in March 2024.
