Banda Entopica is a traditional music street band based in Thessaloniki, fusing clarinet, saxophone, accordion and davul in a synthesis of traditional and modern Balkan music. Influenced by a wide array of sounds from Macedonia, Thrace, Epirus and the entire Balkan Peninsula, their music is a dance-inducing, ecstatic frenzy of traditional songs and original compositions.
Turning to Babo Koro, they are a musical mosaic. They released their first album “Sisyphus” in March 2019. Their compositions echo voices from the Balkans and the Mediterranean. In their colorful musical textile, the traditional Greek music, Balkan ornaments, polyphonies, swing feel, gypsy wandering, rock bluntness, all meet under modern arrangements and rhythms.
Produced and presented by Hercules Economou
